That's really a clever trick, though my initial reaction was horror at the idea of checking one's grammar against the Internet.

Looks like Scribe is only looking one or two words ahead, though - it's not actually checking what you've written, just throwing the Google Suggest box into your writing.

I use it all the time to check difficult words. It works well. Google usually even suggests "did you mean" the right spelling when you get it wrong.

This works especially well for words you can’t find in the dictionary or when you want to know whether the context in which you use a word is appropriate.
