Whilst reading the comments on the topic of typos and so on in eBooks, one of the commentators, Alex, suggested creating a sort of Hall of Shame, and gathering all the typos and lousy proof reading examples into one place on a number of blogs, in an effort to shame the publishers into taking eBooks seriously and delivering quality.
Whilst personally I have not had much of this problem, it is obviously serious enough and wide spread enough to infuriate a hell of a lot of people, so it seemed a good idea to me.
So I thought that if I, and any other bloggers who were interested should create a page called "Lousy proof reading - Publishers take note!", or something similar and spread the word that people could send us their examples of lousy proof reading, we would all place them on this page on our blogs, and exchange all examples, so we all carried the total list of examples. This would surely make the publishers sit up and take notice of us all.
I shall be contacting other bloggers to suggest this to them, but I thought that if you were willing, we could make a start on this.......
