Grammarly has that plugin. I'm not sure how they both compare though (I never have time to give Hemmingway a try before my Grammarly payment renews!).

I want to highlight that apps like this one (or Grammarly) are very useful for those of us who don't speak English as a first language but use it every day. By the way, we are a lot!

I get that they tend to foster a very specific writing style that can be boring, but most comms are not about fun but about conveying a message. I would not write a novel following their advice, but they are useful to replace a few words or add a comma here and there.

So true! I've just bought a Thinkpad T420 and the nipple was key in the decission. Once you get used it can't be beaten and not having it is terrible.

And the new Lenovo trackpads are also multitouch, not as good as Apple's tough.

One relatively easy solution for your email accounts problem: buy a domain, set up Google Apps, create a user and make that email address catch-all.

Now you can have as many email addresses as you want without needing to create them one by one. And if you work it a little more you can even answer as any of them and apply filters.

I have similar problems, but they are worse. Add to the mix suffered by the author working and having friends in a couple of countries/languages and you get my scenario.

I tried with one twitter account per language and doing groups in facebook, but it was too time consuming. Now I mix both languages with care and some won't like it, but I can't go further.
