WILMINGTON, Delaware, December 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Do you know someone who needs help with their writing, or plans to look
for a new or better job in the New Year? WhiteSmoke, the world's leading
English writing enhancement software (http://www.whitesmoke.com), could be
the right choice for a practical last-minute holiday gift.
Unlike ordinary grammar and spell checkers, WhiteSmoke 2008 checks
spelling in context -- such as write and right -- as well as grammar and
punctuation. What's more, this personal technology gift offers an active
thesaurus that automatically suggests alternative and additional words for
the user, based on its analysis of millions of pages of real business
documents. There is also a dictionary which pops up at the click of the mouse
to save time looking up unfamiliar words, and over 600 resume and letter
templates for just about any business situation.
Punctuation errors and missing words account for around 60% of all
business writing errors according to a WhiteSmoke survey of 5,000 pages of
business documents. "Young careerists often have difficulty tailoring letters
and e-mails to their specific audience, often using prose that is too
informal and influenced by IM and social network chat. WhiteSmoke can help
them tidy up their writing in the workplace," says Liran Brenner,
WhiteSmoke's VP of Research and Development.
College, high school and international students report excellent results
from using WhiteSmoke to improve English writing skills. Considering the
amount of time young people spend on the Internet, WhiteSmoke offers an
inconspicuous way to inject a small amount of English writing education into
their virtual world.
WhiteSmoke starts at $79.95 for the General Writing Version. For further
