I shouldn’t do this, but I’m going to. I got an ad this morning for a company selling speech recognition stuff that claims that now you can type as quickly as you can think. So I’m using it now, I’m not doing any corrections, so you won’t see this blog entry if it messes up.
Honestly, more than a couple of mistakes, pal, and you’re done. At the end of this, if it works, I will manually put in a link for a referral link. I’ve hardly ever used referral links before nd when I do it’s so a company can keep track of where any sales come from – I don’t do affiliate stuff, I don’t need to, but if I provide this link and if you choose to go for a 1-month trial of this package, you get the free months free trial and I get some extra words I can use for free.
OK, enough messing around. If the link breaks your PC or sells all your secrets to China, I do NOT take any responsibility whatsoever. I suggest you have a play with it at your own risk. This is incidentally for Windows or iOS. They don’t do Android yet. To be safe, if you send an email or text or whatever – you might want to avoid having the package recognise any secrets 🙂
I’m sitting in front of my PC with two fingers ready on Ctrl and Win buttons, and another finger on the Enter button, so that I can do paragraph breaks whenever I want. I think the basis behind this is that many people, including me, cannot type as quickly as they can think. At one point, I could type a lot more quickly than I could think. But I had a stroke 8 years ago and fully recovered, but my typing skills kind of went down the tubes with it. So when I write blog entries, I spend more time fixing mistakes than actually producing new content.
Please make a mental note. I have not spoken to this company. I don’t know anything about them. I did not expect any kickback out of this. But I did notice that if I convince somebody else to sign up, they will get a free month, and I will get some extra free words I can use, like 2,000 a month for free, for each person that signs up.
Finally, a little background. Back in the 1990s or 2000, I tried the first speech recognition package. I gave it 5 minutes and then gave up on it. Then a few years later, I had to go to another one and gave up on that. I’ve done that several times in a row, and they’re basically all just too much hassle. But this does actually seem to work. I told a lie before. I said I would scrap this if it made any mistakes, but it made only one mistake. What you see three or four paragraphs up where it says “breaks your PC,” it puts something else instead of PC. It put in some other four-letter abbreviation, so I had to fix that, but that’s it. I’m just using the microphone in my webcam, and in the background, my air conditioning is running. So this is really not ideal conditions for word recognition, but it’s working.
If you’re not interested, nothing lost. If you are and you decide to have a go at the link below, and you find it useful, then that’s great, you win, I win, I get to use this package for longer without actually paying for it. Marvellous!

Coming up next problem blog entries. A revised Jet KVM just turned up, and also a Nano KVM Pro turned up which looks very interesting. Especially as it’s a KVM and it has some led strip with it. I don’t know why. By the time I write the blog entry, I will know why. Enjoy.
