Sending classroom website email newsletters: Google Sites (FeedBurner) versus WordPress

September 3, 2012 - Leave a Comment

I had the opportunity to sit in on a Google Sites and Google apps for education workshop the other day as we gear up for the start of the new school year. There’s lots to like about a classroom website powered by Google sites: Your teacher website is hosted by Google which means, chances are, […]


Dragon Naturally Speaking Home vs Professional 15 Review:

  • Nuance offers two versions of their voice software. Read this blog post comparing Dragon Professional vs Dragon Home 15.
  • UPDATE (Tue, Dec 10, 2019): By the way, I still use Dragon Professional 15 to blog and write things down – even though I type at 100+ WPM. The last post I dictated was this one about a free New Year’s Resolution writing activity.

Goodbye, Aviary – Looking for cloud-based Photoshop alternatives

August 22, 2012 - Leave a Comment

Sometimes, things go wrong. (Like trying to dictate this blog post using Dragon Naturally Speaking 12, and discovering the new “enhanced” Bluetooth headset doesn’t work. But that’s a different story.) No, today’s story is about, Aviary. Aviary was a nice collection of free online image and multimedia editing tools. Not as powerful as Photoshop, of […]

New “enhanced” Bluetooth headset doesn’t work for me in Dragon Naturally Speaking 12

August 22, 2012 - 2 Comments

I’m not really having a good time with the newest version of Dragon Naturally Speaking. I spent the last hour struggling with my computer trying to get Dragon 12 to work with the new “enhanced” Bluetooth Plantronics Calisto two headset. The new headset does work. I can listen to music in the earpiece and I […]

Plantronics Calisto BT300 II Enhanced Bluetooth Headset Review

August 16, 2012 - 2 Comments

It’s here, it’s here! (Actually, it arrived a few days ago, but you get the point.) A few days ago ThinkGeek was having a special T-shirt sale and my shirts from the geek overlords have arrived. Meh. Then the very next day, a little package from Nuance arrived in my mailbox. Dragon Naturally Speaking 12 […]

Is Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12 really more accurate than Dragon NaturallySpeaking 11?

August 3, 2012 - 2 Comments

Dragon Naturally Speaking premium 12 just came out today, and the official nuance website says the updated speech recognition software is more accurate, straight out-of-the-box compared to Dragon 11. (Apparently, it’s up to a 20% more accurate than Dragon Naturally Speaking 11.) Maybe, but I’m not so sure. After using Dragon Naturally Speaking (11.5) for […]
