We all seem to spend time on the old laptop or desktop PC and still we find we don't know all that much about what we are using. Hopefully Mr Dprince can supply a few tips and recommendations that will be handy.
The world has come a long way technologically. There are now so many ways to use technology and not all of them are good. I just thought this article might be interesting to those of you who use Twitter and Face book. Man, is this distorted or what?
Well folks, this is a very simple tip that I do not have any knowledge about until just a few days ago. For weeks I’ve been looking for a, and I hate to admit this, but a torrent file of the dragon speak. As most of you know this is a speech recognition program. I felt that this would be an asset to my blogging an article writing. However, I was challenged to find a working copy on any of the torrent sites. It seems that there was always something wrong.
Suddenly one day I spotted a blog with an interesting article which I began reading in earnest. The author said something very interesting. He said if you have this to on your computer then you already have speech recognition. I thought surely this man was delirious. However out all the steps he outlined and lo and behold there was indeed a speech recognition program. Here’s where you find it.
Go to the bottom left side of your screen and hit start.
Next click on all programs.
Then click on an accessories.
Move your cursor down to ease of access and click.
Look for speech recognition and click on that.
Then simply follow the prompts which are very simple and few. I suggest you follow the video tutorial which makes using the program a breeze. And, there you go.
Once you get a hang the of all of the commands available the speech recognition program becomes a godsend. Just think there are a whole lot of people still spending anywhere from one to $300 for the dragon speech recognition program. So check it out and enjoy.
Firefox is still one of the most used browsers known for its stability, security and speed. This video will help you to download and install Firefox. You may never go back to Internet Explorer after this experience.
A second browser that I like and highly recommend is the Flock Browser. It is based on the Firefox version and has all the technology you will need. It is a browser especially useful to the blogger in you. It is easily configurable to handle a number of services. Add-ons are the same as those for any Firefox 3.0 since they are made by Mozilla.
So download and give it a whirl. I think it will be very handy for you.
For the first post I though I would give you this little thing I had made on CamStudio, a free software that is handy to have. Anyway, the browser I have recommended is called the Pale Moon Project. It is basically Firefox with a few differences to make it a much faster browser.
I never know what to say on the first post except to say "Welcome!"
The plan is to give recommendations of the simpler side of software and tips that might help the average joe to work effectively on his computer. Hopefully we will all learn a little something. I know I have...and I will. We will start with a browser review. So, hold on a day while I finish setting up this blog and we can get rolling. Remember, comments are a necessary part of the discussion if we are to learn anything at all. Thanks!
