I've noticed that more and more of the Yahoo Story ideas are using the wrong words, and thus making the reporters/writers look bad.
These mistakes aren't big... but they are noticeable. First, there is a news anchor that says "found on the intrawebs" all the time. It's interwebs. Intraweb is short for internal web, or intranet (which is an internal network used only by a corporation, in the case Yahoo.)
Second, there was a written article today about a young deaf kid named Hunter, the story was great, but it starts off saying he signs his name crossing his fore finger with his index finger. These are the same finger. It should read "... index and middle finger," or "... fore finger and middle finger."
In short, please take a little extra time of proofing before posting. It took me less than a minute to see these mistakes.
