Spell checking for dummies

I am a college student who is pursing computer science and who also working at a medical device company. You would think that I'm a good speller and at least know how to cross my "t" and dot my "i"s. Well, I apologize but that is not my strong suit. I am a terrible speller. I think some of my old post may show that. How do I handle this? I rely a lot on spell check but I have found out that in Gmail, my browser, and even Microsoft Office, all give me different results for each misspelled word. Many times I have not been able to correct my misspelled word. I rely on another tool. This tool has access to any of the data on the information superhighway or Internet. Google! To find the correct spelling I copy and paste my misspelled word into Google and out pops out the correct word. In addition, this shows you how powerful Google is.

Amazon Prime Deal for Students

I have been using Amazon Prime for a couple of years now and has been worth every cent. For those that don't know what Amazon Prime is, it is Amazon's subscription service that gives you access to exclusive sales/items and free 2-Day shipping (not every item is applicable. Prime is mainly used by those who use Amazon a lot and can get their money's worth through the shipping costs but today students can use it for 1-year with the low price of FREE. The only requirements are that the student has to be currently enrolled in a college or university, have a valid .edu email address, and input the college/university you're going to and your major. It's worth the $80 and definitely worth it for free. You can get more info and sign up at Amazon's Student page. [Amazon Student]
