Twitter misspells Australia ‘Austrailia’
Posted on June 14, 2010 by by thedude
I am very surprised that even after ten hours of the game between Germany vs Australia, Twitter still hasn’t updated their official Twitter Australia World Cup page with the correct spelling for Australia, calling it Austrailia.
Since yesterday I’ve seen lots of tweets from users letting Twitter know that they have misspelt Australia however nothing has changed in the official Twitter World Cup page.
After doing a quick Twitter search I noticed that Twitter is not the only twit out there because there are hundreds of Twitter users who can’t spell Australia either.
See the images below, maybe other media services will pick up on this and let Twitter how much of a Twit they are.
Do you think someone in the Twitter team is a little ignorant and is Twitter not showing any respect towards Australia?
