#14Actually kinda cool. Does anyone actually use Voice Control on an iPhone, or any other speech recognition tech? I've never seen it used in real life except in IVR systems.
I use it all the time. Long press the search key from any app, say "Call Papa John". Does a GPS fix, search, lookup and call all in about 3 seconds.
I didn't know you could use it for alarms. That's brilliant and would be great for one-off alarms.
I also use it for short text messages if I don't have a second hand free or can type it out for whatever reason. It works reasonably well, but I've been letting it adapt to my voice pattern so maybe it works better for me than others.

#15I made this quick demo of using it for wikipedia search using a bunch of different public APIs: http://bodytag.org/perch/

#16>If you’re running Chrome 11, you can try it out here. It works very well. You speak, and the browser is able to transcribe what you say. No Flash, no plug-in. Yep. Awesome.
Is this still making requests to Google's servers to do the transcription? Personally I think I'll take the resource-hungry plugin over a web API.
Well, on a computer. On a phone, cloud voice input is fantastic.

#17Has anyone found a way to either A) Activate the mic control from javascript or B) Enable continuous recording once the user has initiated recording?
I understand the security implications of A. However, B would be an acceptable alternative since the user initiates it. I'm imaging a vocal interface that requires minimal user keyboard interaction.
I found an attribute called "continue", but it doesn't seem to do anything special when added to the input element.

#18I created a Voice Search Chrome extension back when Chrome first received speech input functionality that may interest some of you. It's on the Chrome Web Store at https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hhfkcobomkalfdlmko...
hey i tried this out quickly. pretty good. two thoughts:
1) is it me, or does it take two clicks to go from the plugin icon to actually accepting voice input?
2) android's voice search has both visual and audible cues to indicate to the user that it's actually picking up your speech, finished, and is now thinking about it. that'd be excellent.

#19I talk to my computer all the time, never needed Chrome.
I tend to curse my computer a lot for reading my programs wrongly.

#20In this day and age, I feel weird talking to my computer alone in my office.
