Thanks, Kira.

I don’t have any Mac stuff and am not familiar with their apps, but it looks like Dragon Dictation has one and they’ve been doing speech recognition since at least the mid 90s. Anyway, if you’re basically using it for rough drafts, it wouldn’t need to be perfect. And if it runs on your phone, you don’t need any new equipment.

I might try this. I’ve thought of it before and been put off by adding yet another layer of equipment and skill to all the stuff I am learning as I go. At heart I’m a writer, but podcasting would be a nice outgrowth.

Get a cheap recorder you can hook up to a laptop to download the recording (most mp3s these days have such a function). As you see/think of something, record it. Then when you have a chance, upload the audio file, clip them all together, and do it as a pod cast. Then you don’t have to sit and write. :)

Get a collar clip microphone and dictate what your’e planning on writing into it while you ride (should minimize wind interference). Run it through a speech to text program, edit out 3/4ths of your thoughts, and pull the rest together into a blog post.

But I’m on schedule. My goal is to make New Orleans by Oct. 17 and even at a (very slow) pace of 30 miles/day, I’m ahead of that.
