Hi Lucia,
We're supposed to get the demonstration in the next meeting. So you heard it
already, but we're still going to have it. Maria already made the contact with
the gentleman and set it up for the next meeting.
It's fine that you were interested in hearing about it, but the purpose of
having the group is to learn about different technology, museums, etc together.
In my opinion, you kind of ruin it if you go ahead of us learning about it and
tell us everything there is to know about it. We want to experience it
together so that if there's something we may not understand, someone in the
group can have a better insight about it. A salesman will always tell a
potential customer everything good about a product and never the negatives. In
having this kind of group, someone might have used a certain product before and
could evaluate it honestly by saying the pros and cons on it.
Lynnette and Maria can respond to this, but since I help with coordinating I'm
going to state my feelings about this. For me, in the future, I would
appreciate it if you keep your experiences with whatever we're going to do to
yourself until the day of the meeting. So that we have something to look
forward to. Then, the day of the meeting, after we heard the demonstration you
can tell us your experience.
In no ways do I want to hurt your feelings and I'm glad you're excited about
our interests, I'm just asking you not to spoil it for the rest of us.
Take care

Subject: [infoshare] internet speech
Dear Super-Lynne, and dear Infoshare family: I just got a call from a
gentleman who operates Internet speech. This system is called Net-echo. I
asked if I could call him, to come and demonstrate Internet speech for
Infoshare. The gentleman said for any one who is interested, to call, 1877
312/4638
HEre's what happened!
,
Today, I received a call from a man who demo nstrated Internet-speech,
(net-echo) whereby you can access internetspeech in the form of searching,
reading e-mail, or accessing websites, over the phone. A person is prompted,
and they can speak the choices they wish to access: surfing the web, reading
e-mail, composing an e-mail message, the systemis voice-activated, and the
system understands a person's voice. The cost is $14 monthly.
It will say, record your message, hit zero when done. Same as sending a
voice-mail message: over the phone: A computer voice prompts the person
through the system. 1877 312/4638
The man demonstrated the entire system over the phone. Computers and phones
are now inerchangeable. Fascinating!
yOu can use either interactive spelling, or just say the name of the item
that you wish to search. The system gives highlights.
This means that we can conduct research over the phone: the system has a
dictionary:
Stay 8in touch. Best regareds, Lucia
