Spelling doesn't bother me as much as misused words or phrases; generally speaking I'm most interested in being either edified or entertained--either one done well trumps a couple of typos.

It's important to make sure you have spelled eveything correctly and the grammar works. Never know when a tiny slip might completely change the intent or thought in one's post.

Then every other word. Then every other paragraph. Now I just let it fly and (hopefully) remember to read it over at some point and clean up the goofs. We'll forgive a typo now and then if it means we get to hear more about what you're up to. When I first started, I agonized over every word. Then every other word. Then every other paragraph.

Usually I catch them when I read my feeds and then republish a corrected version. I tend to opt for speed because like you, I'm trying to fit blogging into what is an increasingly hectic schedule. That said, when I see certain types of typos on other blogs (my biggest bugaboo is "loose" when the author means "lose") my reaction is generally not favorable.
