RSI/Carpal Tunnel and computer use

Sep 13, 2006 0 Replies

Some of you may know that I pay the bills by typing transcription. Last year, well, almost a year and a half ago, really, I started using the Dragon Naturally Speaking program. This is a voice recognition software program. If you send a lot of emails, you can eliminate most of your typing once you get it trained. Can be had on Ebay for relatively little, or Office Depot carries it in the USA. Other such programs by other companies include ViaVoice, which I believe is an IBM product. You will need a microphone to use it. Some of the products come with a mic headset. YMMV and I don't work for any of the VR companies.
