A new application for Facebook will help you to compose messages free of grammatical errors.
WhiteSmoke Message Composer for Facebook is a free application that you can add to your profile and use to send perfect prose to your friends.
It is based on a software program aimed at professional writers to detect and correct errors.
Amit Greener of WhiteSmoke said: "While the Desktop version of WhiteSmoke has additional features like writing templates and the dictionary-thesaurus, the Facebook application still brings the full power of WhiteSmoke's grammar detection and correction, helping users easily communicate in grammatically correct English."
WhiteSmoke's chief executive Hilla Ovil Brenner explained how technologies such as text messaging had made people lazy and led to a slip in standards in schools.
“For years now, there has been talk of instant messaging and SMS causing the quality of English grammar to deteriorate, and even of school children using text-speak in the classroom and in their essay assignments," Brenner said.
"The WhiteSmoke application for Facebook can help improve this situation by providing an intuitive solution for grammar checking that fits right in with the Facebook experience," Brenner continued.
Once you have signed into Facebook, you can browse through the applications for WhiteSmoke, or click on the link below, to add the program to your profile.
