from BoingBoing

A new word is added to the English language every 98 minutes, says the Global Language Monitor, a descendant of yourDictionary.com. (Ironically, the group's "about" page has "dictionary" misspelled as "dictioanry" in one place.)

I think there is a difference between a typo and a misspelling, probably because I make lots of typos but would still like to count myself as an adequate speller.
