  • 1.  Cool Editing and Publishing Tools

    Posted 01-14-2015 01:41 PM
    Hi,

    I'm doing some research for a little presentation about Cool Online Publishing Tools. As we all know, folks sometimes need a little help when it comes to writing. Spell checkers generally do a good job but may not always cover everything. What I am looking for are sites like the following:

    www.grammarly.com - Helps you by acting as another set of eyes and suggests ways to improve sentences and phrases.

    www.capitalizemytitle.com - Helps you to turn your lower-cased headlines into capitalized headlines.

    www.thesaurus.com - Helps you to find synonyms, and provides a valuable resource for finding quotes. 

    What other online resources do you use to help write content?

    Hello Denman,

    In our office we use the AP Stylebook for grammar and writing style. It requires a subscription but is not very expensive. There are other stylebooks (like the New York Times Manual of Style and Usage) that are also very helpful.
