Classic FAIL … reminds me of a spell check that changed a client’s line of business from a bakery to a brothel (user typed “wharehouse”)

  @Zee Hey, you know LifeFyre doesn’t work on the iPad? Doesn’t seem to load. Had to get my MacBook to post a reply. :-)

  @Boris oh it definitely does and should but something odd is happening that’s preventing it from working here. Working with livefyre and Jordan Kretchmer to get it fixed. Will be soon, promise

  @Boris btw feels lovely when you press the “post comment” button don’t you think?

  @Zee livefyre Jordan Kretchmer awesome. I love reading and commenting on the iPad here. :-)

  @Boris @Zee this post is brilliant. Posting live from the iPad!

Funny, but don’t you think it’s odd that when you try to repeat these yourself, it never works?

  @Paul Evans probably because they were trying to write ‘disney’ but ended up typing ‘divsney’ which auto-corrected to ‘divorce’. That is what happens in most cases…
