Having to Redo Things You Think Were Right...Oh and Pet Peeves

Okay, so I was reviewing my site today. I'm redesigning it, so I've been getting ideas on how I want to do it. I've been looking at other sites that might be similar in nature to mine. So today, I went back to my site, just looking at things. I was watching one of the shows and noticed that the audio was a little off on it. Then I thought, "Gosh, I wonder if any of the other ones are off."

I start looking over all my shows and discover about a third of them have the audio off. I can't figure out why the audio is off. Then I realize that when I exported them through Final Cut Pro, all the ones where the audio is off, I exported as Quick Time Movie. The later ones I exported as Quick Time Conversion. I'm hoping that makes a difference....because it is really going to be a pain and take a lot of time to have to redo all these shows. It's just frustrating.

I can't believe I haven't heard from anyone that the audio is off. They've been seen and shown several times on my site and youtube...and no one has said anything...I guess people aren't really caring. It's not off by that much, but I can definitely tell....

Oh, I was just following someone on Twitter...a famous person...and they misspelled such a common word. I was shocked. I mean this person is on TV every week, and he can't spell a simple word. I'm hoping he was in a hurry and mistyped it or something??!!

That is such a pet peeve of mine...misspelling. Even if I'm texting someone, and I accidentally misspell a word, I have to go back and fix it. Oh, and I just can't stand grammar mistakes. If you're not sure if you're using the word correctly, then don't use it. Use another word. There's nothing more frustrating then reading someone's work and coming across a misspelled or incorrectly used word. By the way, if you ever notice these mistakes on my site or blog, please don't hesitate to point them out to me. I would love you for it.

I know we all get in a hurry or don't realize we are misspelling a word...that's what friends are for. To help us fix those problems. I consider you a friend, so I hope you would do me the honor of telling me any mistakes I make. After all, I'm only human...and make mistakes too.
