#Speech to text in excel for the mac software#
I use speech to text software which is remarkably accurate at the same time as allowing me to write three to four times faster than pecking away at the keys on a keyboard. It is the fastest way to get the thoughts and ideas out of my head and into a document. I do it just about every day of the week.

Do we want people to know exactly what out thoughts are? It wouldn’t be very good if as you walk along the road and were thinking about things, people were doing a drive-by download of your thoughts. Mind you, that would be downright dangerous if there wasn’t any security involved in the process. It’s certainly going to be a long time before we can just think and our thoughts will appear on the page. I’m firmly of the opinion that these days, even that is a little bit old-fashioned. Nostalgia rules! More and more we’ll see images which include computers and people typing on keyboards in the advertising realm of ours. It’s all there in the marketing hype and the connection to the old-fashioned ways of doing things.
So if the picture is to advertise something to do with writing, you’ll see a romanticised, dreamy, stylised view of people with pens or with old-fashioned typewriters. I’m still in that baffled state of mind when I see pictures showing writing and writers and they have the image of people sitting in front of a typewriter. In fact working that way is downright slow and old-fashioned. It’s not the most efficient way to get the words out of your head and onto the page. When we have using speech to text software it baffles me why it is, when people are on about writing these days, they often are thinking about using pen and paper, or even worse using a pencil.
