http://live.pirillo.com/ - Is Windows Vista speech recognition any good? Chris has used almost every speech recognition package, and he has yet to be impressed.The speed recognition software built into Windows Vista isn't that bad. Of course, it isn't that great either. It does a fair job as long as you have a quality microphone and you speak clearly - no thick New York accents here.The problems, of course, show up when you try to pronounce acronyms or companies such as "Ustream." You need to train the software to understand what you're saying, so it ends up being more of an annoyance than being anything practical.If you're serious about using voice recognition (or you must use it because of a disability), then really consider getting Dragon Naturally Speaking, a much more powerful software package than what Microsoft includes with Windows Vista.Want to embed our Speech Recognition video in your blog?
