By far the most effective way I've found to proofread my writing is to activate some kind text-to-speech system on my computer and have it read what I've written back to me.
Great idea! I often read aloud things I've written and that's another good way to catch mistakes.

Of course, nothing beats another pair of eyes altogether. The best proof-reader is usually anyone but the author!
