Talk to your blog.

The Guardian covers SpinVox, a service that let's you update your blog by talking to it on your mobile phone.

Speech to text has been one of those "dream technologies" which didn't really come true but over the last years serious efforts and advancements have been made. The SpinVox service launches this week on Six Apart's LiveJournal blogging platform.

It will allow you to phone in your posts but you can also publish your SpinVox number so that your readers can "call in" their comments.

I have been testing out Nuance's Dragon Naturally Speaking software on my home PC and must say I was seriously impressed with the quality of the speech to text results.

The software needs a little bit more training and then I'll be able to talk to my PC to update my blog.... Sad isn't it ;-)

There is a huge debate about Belgium going on. Between Belgians and Foreigns from all countries, Scandinavia, Central Europe, North America, South America
