If you are a blogger, you should be using Firefox. Besides being a great all around browser, it has many great features. One of the best features is its built-in spell checker. When ever you are writing a comment, response or post, Firefox will show you words that you have misspelled.
Your comments will be much more professional and save you time when writing. Try Firefox I think you’ll like it.

Eliot,
Spell check is a new feature in Firefox 2. See the features here: Features
Spell check is also an option in the Google tool bar, but is not needed and is redundant.
If you do not have the spell check your settings. In the address bar, type: about:config. Then in the the filter box type spell. The layout.spellcheckDefault should have a value of 1. The spellchecker.dictionary entry should have the language setting. Mine is set to en which is English.
If the configuration page does not have the spell check entries or spell check still does not work, go to Firefox Dictionaries. Read the instructions, you may need to install the dictionary or re-install Firefox.
