speech recognition: it works surprisingly well

Sep 28, 2009 19:55

so a while ago the keyboard on my laptop was broken. it's made it really irritating to try to do any work on this computer. but I finally figured out that I can install speech recognition  ... or rather set up speech recognition ... on this computer. so now I'm trying to use speech recognition to write this entry, and it's working pretty well. it's not very good with punctuation, but all the whole entirely satisfying.

right now I'm watching house. I  really liked this season premiere in the institution but I was kind of like how can an institution be like that .... wouldn't there be more people like house there?

anyway I don't really have anything actual to say and it's kind of hard to think and use the speech recognition at the same time. I did want to say That the stress thing at work has gotten a lot better. the Celexa that my mom gave me has worked pretty well. I am also getting more used to it at work and to the people there. today I spent the whole day working on a pretty complicated word press installation and I really liked doing that. it was actually a good day.

I have also been trying to get more involved in art scene here. I've been going to galleries and art walks / open studios, and last week that met with volunteer coordinator for a community art charity here. she was pretty great. I also went to  a social media panel last week. one of the speakers talked about the software that the company I work at  makes and it turned out that he's involved in an organization that connects artists with board positions and businesses in Calgary. I hope I'll be able to get involved in that because it sounds fun .

O. K. I  think that had enough dictating for one night. I am pretty impressed, I am must say.
