Bold Text -The Importance of Writing for Easier Readers' Scan

Milton Ramirez
From our experience, we do know that writing web documents is a different process from writing for print, and if you simply move your print documents onto weblogs, you are not using the medium to its best advantage. Be aware then, If you are including textual information on your blog, you should rewrite or adapt your materials to the style of the genre.  Brad blogging is a good place to find online resources about how to write on your web site and he advises on many topics for those in the blog business. If you happen to visit Brad blogging, as you should do, you will feel immediately compelled to stay, browse, scan, and subscribe. Why? The presentation of his page is eye-catching, design, graphs, pictures, and the length of posts, so short that you won't spend more than a few seconds to get to the point. I encourage every blogger to write short posts, web readers are lazy and don't always appreciate to read long posts. So, you have to find ways of how to invite your reader

Ghotit - A SpellChecker to English Language Learners and ELL’s.

Milton Ramirez
Have you ever heard of Ghotit ? This is a super-spell-checker, ideal for very beginning English Language Learners and ELL’s with learning disabilities (as well as native speakers with challenges). It has the ability to help sleuth-out words that people are trying to spell — in a much more in depth way than most regular spell-checkers. Worth to give it a try. h/t: SpeEdChange
