WhiteSmoke Update: This review is about WhiteSmoke Writing Software 2008 but the people of WhiteSmoke just released WhiteSmoke 2009 and although this review is still valid the new WhiteSmoke 2009 version is even more impressive. You can find here a cool video with the 2009 improvements.
The thing that I do most is I writing. Not only for my Dutch and English blogs but I’m also working on an e-book with step by step tutorials (like here) where I’m showing others how they can make a nice looking blog and how to make a good living from it. I do this by telling how I make money online and how I can make a living doing this. I’m a blogger/writer/entrepreneur for quite some time now and the last couple of years I’ve tried several programs from simple dictionary software to “speak to write” software. And the results of all this testing… Due to the lack of better; I’m still using the Microsoft Word dictionary.
My first impression about WhiteSmoke Writing Software.
My first impression about WhiteSmoke Writing Software was that I didn’t believe in their product, but that I found their product related to my blog and they were willing to pay a nice amount for a couple of months advertising, so he’… they got a spot in my sidebar. Now you see that I’m not that nice guy after all. Sorry guys, but I need to make a living ;).
Should I give WhiteSmoke a try?
As said; the thing that I do most is writing. Although I’m very intrigued with writing software I’m also very aware that installing and using writing software can be a real nightmare. Dictionary and translation software might be the most difficult niche for software development because of the diversity and complexity of languages. I had the WhiteSmoke banner on my blog on the first of this month and after a week looking at it I decided to have a closer look at the WhiteSmoke website.
What is WhiteSmoke Writing Software?
“The All-in-One writing software”, “The All-in-One solution to help you write better, right now!” and “The Business Writing Version is the perfect choice for the office”. If I read this WhiteSmoke should be the perfect gift from heaven for my blogs and e-book, Hmm. However, when you look a bit further you’ll also see some very remarkable WhiteSmoke Reviews by MSN, Softpedia, The Jerusalem Post and many many others. So I, the skeptical gave the software a try.
Using WhiteSmoke Writing Software for my posts and e-book.
WhiteSmoke writing software is designed to help people improve their English or tailor their text to a specific style like legal, medical, business, creative or simply for fulfilling your daily general writing needs.
After I downloaded the software a short installation followed. Whitesmoke integrates with most text-based software running on your PC, including Word, Outlook and Messenger, allowing you to check and correct your text at the click of a button.
The interface….
It works pretty much the same way as Microsoft Office’s spelling and grammar tools only more comprehensive. You can activate the interface via the key F2 and by hitting the F2 key you’ll immediately notice my only frustration about WhiteSmoke. When you activate the application via F2 you’ll disable the text application that you have running until you tell it to either accept or cancel the proposed changes.
All the reviews that I’ve been reading about WhiteSmoke tell me that the program is ideal for students that need to work on their English. That it is ideal for business use whether it is for writing letters, books, e-mails and even that it is great for MSN use.
My opinion about this; I can fully understand why the NBC testimonial says that "WhiteSmoke is unequaled in its field." and that CNN Business 2.0 magazine says that WhiteSmoke is "Ranked #5 in the Top 31 Business Ideas in the World.".
If you really want to improve your writing skills and communications then you should absolutely buy WhiteSmoke and give it a try. WhiteSmoke all-in-one writing software is absolutely worth his price. You can download WhiteSmoke here.

I am working with WhiteSmoke for years and I’m really happy with it.
I’m from Germany and although my speech isn’t that good my writing is almost perfect.
I have used WhiteSmoke 2008 for about two months now. My opinion is mixed. While this program is fantastic for writers with mediocre to poor English skills, I am not entirely sure it is that useful for my skill level. Although it is certainly better than anything included with Word, it is not going to find every grammatical error. I use it more for confirmation of my writing, rather than for correcting.
The interface is truly slick… very well designed. However, the 2008 version does seem to have one bug and that is if one makes a correction in Word 2007 and then apply the correction, the original Word 2007 formatting is lost.
