 Why is it spelt "center"?
I was just wandering why Micrososft opted for the USA uption for spelling "centre". All non US countries, and there are a lot mr. & mrs. USA, spel it: Centre. Why did Microsoft go for the typical US solution and again show their ignorance to the rest of the world?!
Just my little rant here. Love the product by the way!

 Re: Why is it spelt "center"?
dunno why... Haven't noticed that, eventhough I'm not from the US.
Welcome a board Sarah & Netbook.
An "Introduce youself forum" may be good, but that usually ends up in a lot of unnessecary posts. Everybody can start asking questions here straight away!

 Re: Why is it spelt "center"?
I disaprove of a Welcome forum, a section on running campaings and SEO might be usefull though. Give it a think through!

 Re: Why is it spelt "center"?
SEM & SEO forums might be a good idea. There are a lot of other forums out there on this topic though, so I'll wait a little with this. It is however closely related with web analytics and might be a good idea eventually!

 Re: Why is it spelt "center"?
didn't this get slightly off-topic?
Surely Microsoft will release a British English version. Though really there isn't much difference.. I use British sites quite often and I have no problem with it. Though I do, use them often.. I suppose someone who doesn't often read a different form of english might have trouble.
