…that is, with Dragon Naturally Speaking.\u00a0\u00a0 This is my first day of working with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I’m hoping to use it to make blog posts, email, and tweets on Twitter. This will save my fingers a lot of work. So far I’ve gotten it to work for emails for some posts but not on Twitter yet. Right now I’m using it. It definitely changes the rhythm of my writing. It’s also slower than writing right now.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I won’t be using it for fiction writing, because I use so many strange names and strange words and it takes time to teach it how to do each one of those. But just using it for ordinary writing chores will help a lot. The first big project will be the annual wildlife management report. That’s to a very standard format, and uses far fewer strange terms. Besides all the strange terms it does use are English.<\/p>\n
Have any of you used any dictation software? If you have, how did you like it? Do you have any recommendations for a better microphone than the one that came with Dragon? I find the headset uncomfortable, and am hoping to find a separate microphone that I can use alongside my other headphones.<\/p>\n
As I warned it’s going to take me a while to figure out who won the contest please be patient. Thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
