I have read this sentence about the new Google logo: "Went from a nice professional looking logo to a basic noring(sic) 1st grade font and you like it? Yeuch…. not an improvement at all" and I do not understand what "noring" means.
 
Where did you read it? Who wrote it?
 
I assume it was a misprint for "boring".
 
I had looked up for the term in different dictionaries. I thought it was some mistake. Thanks very much.
 
You can tell it's a typo if you'll notice it says (emphasis mine):

Public comments on the Official Google Blog include:


  • Went from a nice professional looking logo to a basic noring (sic) 1st grade font and you like it?
You will see (sic) used when quoting text to clarify that that is the way it was originally written - any errors or misspellings were the original author's, not the person citing the text.
