Have you ever heard of WhiteSmoke? Well, if you haven't then here is my understanding of it: it is a program similar to Microsoft Word, only it is supposed to be excellent at perfecting any mistakes that you might make. Anyways, I got this email from them advertising an Outlook add-in of theirs and they gave an example of how it works; you have a poorly written email, you click the "T-Gen" (The name of the add-in) button and a message appears showing you how many mistakes you made then fixes them. The example they gave just shows how horrible their add-in is and probably Outlook alone could fix everything that the "T-Gen" did. Here is a picture:
Notice how the last sentence of the final email says, "it very important!" Now I don't know about you, but I certainly think that the program didn't work to well on fixing that because "it very important" just sounds like baby-talk. The "i" in "it" isn't even capitalized! I can't believe that WhiteSmoke actually sent this email out to everyone who is subscribed to their mailing list. It is quite embarrassing if you ask me.
