PostSubject: My computer loves my voice...   My computer loves my voice... EmptyMon Jun 01, 2009 4:10 pm

I started writing at 5:00Am. At 10:AM I was was called on to drive to the aid of a friend. I did not want to stop writing. I was having one of those days where the words were flowing.
My computer is a lap, and it has windows vista. With a headset and mic, I was able to drive the next hour, and write by voice alone...The program Speech Recognition is about 80% trained on my voice, so there are not that many miss-spelled words.
If any of you have vista, you have Speech Recognition...train it, you will love the program. The manual in within the program.

Speech recognition programs don't seem to like my Scottish way of speaking or maybe its my broad Ayrshire Scots that I find myself speaking more than English that is the problem. Whatever it is I have a hard time get these types of programs making sense of me. In the end I have to give up as the frustration levels reach breaking piont and I'm so much quicker just typing.

My computer would probably crash if I tried to talk to it.

Or it would make me repeat myself until I went into a rage.

Picky, picky, Ann. Since when are mis sspeeled words important? Isn't the passion that goes into misspelling them more important?
