iPhone Contractions Shortcut

Another outstanding iPhone typing shortcut:

Type “helll,” and the keyboard software will recommend “he’ll.” Type “welll,” and the keyboard software will recommend “we’ll.”

This is great, but too bad it doesn’t work for typing “itss” for “it’s”.

Update: Reader Morris Tsai points out that if you type “itsa”, the suggested correction is “it’s”. Excellent.
