Could this be the power of blogging … ???

It used to say Taxi Que … now it correctly says Taxi Queue …

A coupla months go ... i wrote a blog post ...
It was about prevalent spelling mistakes of signage ...
They say blogs have the power to sway public opinion ...
I don't think thats true ... and I'm not sure I wanna do that ...
Some even say blogs can make you rich and famous ...
Haven't seen a single buck my way yet ... hehe ..
But may be ... just may be ... I might have made myself heard ...
Cos they actually have corrected a spelling mistake ...
I guess may be i could think of thisas a small victory ... ???
And i guess my blog hasn't been totally useless after all eh ... ???
Laterx ...

I think it was changed coz Haveeru newspaper also ran a picture highlighting the mistake sometime back. Two days after the photo was published, they changed it. There was another photo of a similar sign too on Haveeru. Don't know if that has changed. Then again, maybe someone from the ferry terminal saw it on your blog and changed it. heheh
