Notice the font effects used in this paragraph about instant
messaging etiquette. IMs are meant to be casual, but
it's a real turn-off when messages are FULL of typos. It's not a test, but you want people
to understand you. It may help to slow down and think a little
before typing. Don't be haughty, either. It's not your job to
criticize someone else's typing, unless it's really horrible.
Remember, you're using an IM to communicate. If you're not
communicating, what's the point?
