Press Release Body: WhiteSmoke announces the immediate availability of WhiteSmoke
2009, the latest version of its desktop English writing application. WhiteSmoke 2009
is the premier writing tool for people who need quality written text, offering
advanced grammar checking, style checking, and spell checking.
"WhiteSmoke 2009 brings our writing technologies to a new level of sophistication,"
claims Hilla Ovil-Brenner, WhiteSmoke CEO. "As a result of over 6 months of
intensive user testing, we have made important changes to the interface to enhance
usability, and incorporated many new algorithms to address writing style issues.
WhiteSmoke 2009 is a mature product for accurate proofreading and editing, whether
you are a blogger, an at-home writer, or a corporate professional."
New GUI
WhiteSmoke 2009 introduces a new GUI with an improved workflow. Central to the new
design is the presentation of WhiteSmoke's suggestions and corrections. Replacing
the pop-up menus of WhiteSmoke 2008, the user now receives corrections and
suggestions in-line with the text, just like when a text is edited and proofread
manually."Our beta group is very pleased with this new development, which brings a
more organic and 'real life' feel to the writing and editing experience," notes
Liran Brenner, VP R&D at WhiteSmoke .
Style Checker
WhiteSmoke 2009 introduces a new collection of style checking features. The
WhiteSmoke Style Checker includes WhiteSmoke's patented Text Enrichment, as well as
a range of new features that address overall writing style. Users will be notified
of incomplete sentences, use of slang and IM speak, and informal sentence
structures. These additional style checking features consolidate the WhiteSmoke
mission of creating an "all-in-one" writing tool.
Grammar Checker
WhiteSmoke 2009 introduces new grammar algorithms and updates to existing
algorithms. Key new detections include confusions between countable and
non-countable nouns (much/many, less/fewer), comparative/superlative mismatches
(more nicer, less nicest), and recognition of run-on sentences. Updates to existing
grammar algorithms have further improved the precision of WhiteSmoke's corrections
over a wider variety of possible sentence constructions.
WhiteSmoke 2009 - An English Writing Tool with Wide Appeal
"WhiteSmoke 2009 represents the next step in the evolution of software to correct
and enhance English writing," states Amit Greener, VP Marketing at WhiteSmoke. "With
WhiteSmoke 2009, anyone who writes in English has a comprehensive and intuitive tool
to aid written communication, a tool that easily integrates with a user's existing
applications and preferred methods of working."
