Repeat after me: it is Gandhi, not Ghandi

Reblogged from Om Malik:

It is unbelievable that in this age when Wikipedia and Dictionary are essentially a click away, I find educated, smart people misspell the name of one of the most iconic figures of modern times. People it is Gandhi, not Ghandi.

Ghandi’s Top Ten Fundamentals For Changing The World via curiosity counts.

Apparently Francesca Ramos, the creator of that wonderful poster, discovered her error and corrected it perhaps more than a year ago. Even more interesting is how the original, uncorrected version that appeared on her tumblr was pinned on Pinterest, then grabbed for someone else's tumblr, where it caught the eye of Om Malik, who posted a small rant about it on his site. Almost ironic I'd say. Share

Sitting in my room on a Saturday morning, with the intermittent sounds of car wheels, bird calls, the washing machine and the pages of the weekend newspaper being flipped in the next room, this wonderful article from the NYTimes transports you to a place where an attempt is being made to preserve the sounds of the natural world for future generations.

Not-so-subtle marketing ploy or real mistake? You make the call… :)
