It’s not just Getbig a phenomena. I receive several business e-mails and business plans per day with horrible grammar, punctuation, spelling, incorrect homophones (your/you’re; hear/here; won/one, ware/wear/where etc) and run-on sentences. Anyone can spell check but it takes at least an SOME grammatical acuity to get the aforementioned correct. I’m not saying I don’ t make some mistakes but it makes me scratch my head that someone looking for $250 Million in funding wouldn't hire someone adept to edit their documents.     

That is truly incredible.

I fear, my Australian friend, that we are already there, though it saddens me. I have been in academia too long to not care about it but I must say get big gives new meaning to the proverbial meat head with a barbell if you know what I mean.

you start a thread whining about how people who post dont use proper punctuation and then type out this post?

moron.

Do cite specific errors please if you are going to be so critical.

What about people who say "i could care less".  They deserve a similar level of abuse, imho.

Capitalisation!  How dumb can you be? That is not a word. You lecture on proper grammar and then use inaccurate linguistics.

it won't kill those idiots to proofread their writings before posting it. imagine an employer reading your resume with one too many grammatical error. I wouldn't hire that idiot. It is a bigger deal than some of you think.

in the corporate world, your writing says a lot about you. Imagine if you're applying for  law school, and you send your essay with errors an elementary student wouldn't make...lol. you'd be denied in a heartbeat.
