Is my computer depressed this morning?
Monday, April 28th, 2008Well, I’ve finally got round to getting this blog back up again, so here’s a slightly frivolous post just to check that everything is working. As many of my blog readers may already know, I’ve been using voice recognition for about seven years now, and it is one of our key stealth weapons to keep fighting in the never-ending content battle.
The equipment I have set up on his desk, which includes a Sennheiser MD 431 II microphone and ultraquiet CPU architecture, ensures that Dragon 9.5 is as accurate as it can be, but it is still prone to the odd howler. I was supposed to be writing a list of office stationery requirements, but somehow it substituted “Blu-tac” with “Prozac”.
Well, one is supposed to pick you up, and the other is there to keep things hanging on the walls, so I suppose this kind of lateral thinking is quite impressive for a 12 month old computer. Or maybe not. Maybe I’m just trying to make Monday morning interesting. I’ll let you make up your own mind - at least this blogger is back up now, and as usual, he has plenty to say.
