I suspect social networking may in part be to blame, but I also wonder how much this has to do with the fact that we can no longer concentrate on just one thing. Multi-tasking has taken the world by storm with teenagers leading the way.

I've been noticing considerably more writing errors in books, on websites, and in marketing collateral, and I can't help but wonder how our haste and lack of attention affects business.

If you have one minute, I'd love to hear what you think. I've created a brief, 5-question survey to measure how writing errors influence buyer behavior. The survey will remain open until Feb 28th, and respondents can remain completely anonymous.

Follow this link to take my survey now:

Thanks in advance for your insight.
