Maybe it’s the graphic designer in me that gives me such “attention to detail”. Or maybe I’m just really picky about some things, who knows. All I do know is that there are certain things that drive me nuts. There are a lot of ways of writing the same things, and as a designer there are certain instances of this that I see all the time.
One example is phone numbers. There are three common ways of writing phone numbers, all of which I see on different websites daily. I personally have one way that I stick to, I’ll even take a few extra seconds to change the way somebody else wrote it if I’m on the page. Maybe I’m crazy, I dunno. I figured I’d put it out there to see if anyone else is bothered by having phone numbers written in a different format on the same website, and more importantly I wanted to ask the question:
How do YOU write phone numbers?
