"Blog", "blogging" and "blogger"

I've already mentioned this elsewhere today but Blogger.com's spellchecker does not recognise the words "blog, "blogging", and "blogger"; instead, it recommends that I change them to "bog", "blagging" and "logger", respectively. Wait...what?

It's bizarre that the program doesn't register a legitimate noun/verb, a verb and its own name/another noun as real words. As I also said elsewhere today, imagine if Microsoft Word's spellchecker didn't understand the word "Microsoft" and recommended that the user change it to "micro" and "soft".

  1. Yeah, Writing.com is the same way! Even with more common words - it's strange. For a while, that was a joke between some members and I - stupid internet spell checker. :D
