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 […]


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.

Plantronics Calisto BT300 II Enhanced Bluetooth Headset Review

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.

For almost two years, I’ve been blogging by talking to my computer using my trustee Bluetooth Plantronics Calisto headset and Dragon Speak.

Dragon Naturally Speaking, Microsoft Word, and Windows Live Writer

July 10, 2012 - Leave a Comment

I really like Microsoft Word. Sure, I use Google Docs in the classroom with my students. No one does online collaboration like Google – Microsoft and Wikispaces just can’t compare.

June 30, 2012 - Leave a Comment
