One of the bad things about follett [and I love them] is that if you
misspell something it does NOT correct it. It tells you that you
don't have it. You can then click on the 'browse title' or 'browse
subject' tab and check there, but it's really really a hassle and you
have to noodle around quite a bit usually. If you type in "Ann
Frank" forget it! I'd love for it to actually have a great "did you
mean" Anne Frank prompt or even pop up with a list of possible things
you could be looking for. I hope they fix this!!

I've been wondering a similar thing this afternoon while I'm using
Titlewave. As we are considering buying Destiny, I'm hoping that
their "did you mean?" search when you mistype or misspell something
is better than they have on Titlewave.

Is it just me? I'm apparently too stupid to use Titlewave. Why
would you have an ordering site like that and not be able to type in
a title and go right to that page? For example: I type in the title
Eclipse I get every book that has the word eclipse in the title
anywhere. This is a site for librarians! My card catalogue will go
right to a specific title.
Thanks for letting me vent.
