Sure, here it is: How I Use Dragon Naturally Speaking I am a blind user who depends on a Braille display and JAWS screen-reading software to perform my duties at Microsoft. I was recently introduced to Dragon Naturally Speaking along with J-Say. Together, they enable me to talk to my computer and listen to feedback and text. At work, I use Dragon to create release notes and to write content for our users. I also use it to quickly draft e-mail messages and reports. Because it can type faster than I can, it has saved me quite a bit of time. I just had to get used to talking, instead of typing. In my spare time I write short stories and novels. I enjoy speaking my thoughts and having Dragon faithfully record them for me in Word. I have found that it frees my creativity more quickly, and my thoughts tend to flow more quickly because I can talk faster than I can type. I am a massage therapist in the evening and have used Dragon to complete my SOAP charts. I listen to my tape recording of my client's session, and then simply transcribe the details to my computer. J-Say enables me to move quickly through a page, whether it is a Web page or a mail message. The enhancements that it offers is amazing and really caters to us blind folk who rely on information to tell us what is on the screen. I pray that one day, this technology will be available on my mobile phone. Now, if I can just get Dragon to make my coffee in the morning and let the dogs out-life would be great.
