In MacOS X it is possible to have spellcheck OS wide for all applications where you have an input. Is something similar possible with Ubuntu? So that I have spellcheck for e.g. skype?

I don't think there is anything approaching this functionality yet available on Ubuntu. It's been proposed time and again on ubuntu brainstorm, and these suggestions have been collected under this idea: Idea #364: More comprehensive dictionary program. (Check the duplicates assigned to this idea).

Check this post to see a rigged up implementation with the same goal in mind.
