[Off] Google Docs Speech Recognition

Just thought I'd post this since much documentation gets produced in this project and it might help people who need to get things done fast.

I just tried Google docs new speech recognition facility and I thought it was pretty awesome. It managed a whole paragraph with zero mistakes except for 1 word without even learning my accent.

It also has quite good editing and punctuation features. It takes some practice but I can see it being phenomenally productive if you get used to it.

(You need the Chrome browser).

Fantastic! Thank you!

Now everybody has no excuse for not producing dash articles!


(I have produced this post with this new tool)

You can even open several tabs with different languages in them. And speak in several different languages in the same session - it works perfectly!
