Telling your computer what to do -- Another post by David Pogue of the NYT

Well ... I must say that I didn't expect David Pogue to love Windows Speech Recognition as much as he does. I remember going out to meet him last August while I was in New York for SpeechTEK 2006. I was a bit nervous, as David is one of the top technology writers in the industry and he's sometimes critical of features and products.

So ... I remember thinking to myself on the long car trip from New York to the PR firm, "What have I gotten myself into volunteering to come out and show David WSR for the first time?!". But, everything went swimmingly. I wasn't concerned about the product not doing a good job. It's great. But I wasn't so sure how he'd react to some of our innovative features.

I mean... Don't get me wrong, WSR is definitely great, and a huge improvement over what we've done before. But ... David really REALLY loves WSR. He's posted about it a lot lately. He's even got a big section about WSR in his latest book, Windows Vista: The Missing Manual.

In today's New York Times, he does it again, posting a pretty glowing review of Windows Speech Recognition.

Thanks David -- It's always nice to hear nice things from users and reviewers. Especially nice when it's coming from someone that knows so much about the PC industry.
