I like to keep the dinner table sacred... But it occurred to me the other day that's where speech recognition would be really useful. Prop the iPad up and tell it what websites to visit, dictate emails etc. Could be a viable mass market opening for voice recog tech (cause otherwise I tend to agree with that recent Spolsky blog - who really wants speech recognition interfaces?)
- AlexMuir 16y agoThere's Dragon dictation software available for it, no idea if it's any good though.
- petercooper 16y agoSee, I would find that makes the table a lot less sacred because it's where a lot of conversation goes on, and barking orders at my iPad isn't going to be popular ;-) Not only that, I'd rather my wife didn't know I was goofing off instead of working, ha!
