Nice roundup of some of the more prevalent mistakes. May I also add the construction:
"I know I've not been round much lately" - British
"I know I haven't been around much lately" - North American
Also, in everything except the use of university vs college and not requiring standardized tests for university entrance, Canadians use all the American examples above, not the Brit.
