Since people were wondering earlier...I just learned that the smoke represents the completed & counted ballots being burned.

yes that is the smoke. the burning of the ballots. 115 of them. when the smoke turns black it is when they throw plastic on the fire.they have chosen a pope now. live on bbc. white smoke and the bells are going.
in about another hour they will say who it is. they give the person chosen a chance to either accept the nomination or reject it, then if he accepts he chooses a name.
