I thought I'd write a new post that I think might be useful to many of the members out there in regards to the conversion of speech to text or speech reconition, specifically for use on posts. If, like me, you don't particularly enjoy typing thousands and thousands of words for posts or just don't type that quickly then this could be useful to you. If you're not already doing it that is.....

If you have a smartphone. Many of these apps can be found for free on the App or Android Store. If you search "speech to text", or "speech regonition" you'll generally be able to find apps that will help you to be able to do this.

These apps will enable you to, in effect, have a conversation about the subject that you wish to post about, and will transcribe everything that you say into text, which you can then just copy and paste into your post and edit from there. There are also many things you can do with the audio and transcripts, including emailing, sharing on dropbox etc that are very useful.

I find these apps extremely useful for the creation of posts and articles and serve to take much time out of the whole process. I even produced this post this way. I won't mention the one I use here but I find it extremely accurate so if you'd like to know please DM me and I'll be happy to share.

I hope this is of help to members.

Have a great day
