Note: This is a Blog
Readers,
I type an average of 3,000 words per day on MetsBlog.com.
My goal, and one of the driving forces in the site’s success, is to get content on to 
MetsBlog as soon as I can, so you have plenty to read as soon as possible.
Quite often I will type so fast that I’ll mispell a word, unknowingly goof up a stat, etc., because my goal is to convey an idea, link or moment and get content up as quickly as I can.
This fast-paced style is unique to blogging, and most people are not used to it – especially people who are mostly familiar with newspapers and magazine, which have large staffs, editors and, more importantly, time.
In fact, there are times when I write so quickly, and am so eager to move on to a new topic, I actually forget to use spellcheck.
I do not have an editor. I do not have a staff of people looking over my every word, proof reading what I write, as I post and move on to find new information.
Technically, you are my editor, whether you realize it or not. When I goof up, as I often do, readers of this site will point out the error, and I’ll make the correction.
On a blog, this is as close to the editor-writer dynamic as I will get and, instead of proofreading, I rely on my readership to point out mistakes – at which point I make the appropriate change, just like an editor and writer.
In other words, thank you for your help and for keeping a watchful eye on the work being done by MetsBlog’s writers.
It is greatly appreciated, and very much welcomed and, yes, I misspelled misspell on purpose.
Keep on smiling,
