Most of the errors Jeff Deck comes across involve missing apostrophes, misplaced commas, and misspelled words. He has been making his way across the country with a typo correction toolkit consisting of white-out, different colored Sharpies and stickers which he uses to correct many of the mistakes he finds. It’s a strange hobby to be sure, but it’s also a good excuse to travel, and it’s brought him some notoriety as well. The Typo Hunt Across America has become a very popular blog, and I first saw his story on ABC news, so there has been plenty of media coverage as well. If you start to notice signs around town which have been corrected by hand, then there’s a good chance that Jeff’s typo hunt has come to a neighborhood near you.
