So any one with two hours or more to spend on teaching their computer new tricks, need not look any further than their new Windows 7 installation.
I wrote this entire post using Microsoft speech recognition that is included with their latest OS. What to me
took me 10 minutes to complete using speech recognition would have taken the 20 microseconds to type. So there is a small learning curve for the computer, but reasonable considering what is happening. It is incredible!
You too can speak to your computer just like Star Trek if you have lots of free time. Believe me technology has come a long way from the days of Windows 3. 1. It used to have a long way to go but if this is proof is starting to be realistic.
Do yourself a favor And spend 2 hours in the next few days or weeks and set up speech recognition on your computer by going to the following tutorial
click start menu, type “start speech recognition” and press enter. And follow the wizard.
OK for you should give it 3 hours and it takes a longer than 10 minutes to complete your first post, but the thrill of it recognizing your voice so incredibly well it is worth it. Thank you Microsoft for showing us why touchscreen technology is only a single part of the future!!
