Another new link on the blog roll

http://uksbsguy.com/blogs/doverton/

Another new link on the blog tonight ... it's the MS UK SBS guy.. which means he'll probably be doing things like spelling the word "color" wrong.. and "Center" and stuff like that on his blog...

(bet he pronounces the word Aluminum weird too... al-loo-men-e-um)

Susan,

now surely you are not going to let something as simple as a common language get in the way? Are you saying you want me to speak American, or are you claiming that your colour of the Queen's English means that you thoroughly mis-spell her words :-).

Yes, I do spell colour that way, but I still have a Windows Media Center 2005 at home, so not sure where I truely stand on that one - did you know Centre is French anyway?

Hopefully the key benefit is that I express what I think is right for small business partners - and not always in the softest terms.

thanks for pointing me out

ttfn

David

You mean I've been spelling colour wrong this whole time?

I bet at TechEd you'll nag me about how I say "route" wontcha?

We allow you guys to mispell the language whilst you get a few hundred years under your belts - you will get the hang of it.

Just because the "s" key gets stuck on your keyboards and you have to use "z" (which you pronounce incorrectly as well). Is it just to keep in step with Seama Street I wonder?

As for aluminium - that is still the best you have devised yet. You even changed the spelling to match the way that you say it [grin]...

An amusing quote (from an American mouth):
England?? Where's that? Do they speak English in England?
