Testing Dragon Naturally Speaking Software

I just installed Dragon naturally speaking software on my computer. That is the software that will let you speak into a microphone, and it will print out on the screen what you say in text. This could be a dynamite way to update blogs and respond to e-mail. If this works out as well as I think it will. Then I will need to figure out exactly what I want to do with this blog rather than the hodgepodge it has been up until now. So far, the software has not messed up my words too badly. The ones it has messed up were a function of my pronunciation rather than the software. The fact that it smells most of the words correctly alone is worth the price of admission!

In as much as I am an aspiring writer and closet novelist. I see other possibilities with the software as well. Which is why I am so eager to test it out. You do need to make sure that the door is closed to your office, unless you want all of your coworkers to know exactly what e-mail you are replying to or what topic you are posting on your blog. Most ends my test posed using voice commands. Away team Delta out!
