Here's the video URL: http://pyvideo.org/video/500/pygotham-2011--plover--thought-to-text-at-240-wpm And here's the subtitle page: http://www.amara.org/en/videos/687jGo3RSpMI/en/64784/<br /><br />I'll try to get both operating again soon.Mirabai Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494847224950297255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-58299837847208611392014-01-22T23:14:58.147-08:002014-01-22T23:14:58.147-08:00Hey, Glen.

One of these days I'm going to try to get the original file from the videographer and then upload it to Youtube, but until then it's out of commission.

I really hope you will get other enthusiastic programmers interested in helping to improve the steno world. Like you said, it's more efficient and productive. It's addictive, too! Please keep doing what you're doing. I'm so inspired!dragonbabegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02894358448400264098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-45174188230800450142012-02-17T13:40:09.417-08:002012-02-17T13:40:09.417-08:00Thanks for the kind words, Jesse!

And am taking the plunge to learn it. I am a musican so hopefully some of those skills help. Your site is a wonderful resource of information and has helped me with a ton of questions I had. Thanks for doing it :)Jessenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-81801495485898684162012-01-15T09:33:15.981-08:002012-01-15T09:33:15.981-08:00Heya, Svennek!

We're currently applying for a grant that will hopefully cover the cost of the game development, but if we don't get it, a Kickastarter campaign is next on our list of options. I'll definitely let you know if we end up going that route. A lot of people have expressed interest in making a low-cost steno layout keyboard, but so far no one's actually come up with hard specs for it, and I think the cost of custom fabrication might be prohibitive, unfortunately. But maybe as 3D printing comes down in price, that'll be a thing that we can start offering in the next couple of years. It would definitely be a wonderful thing to have.Mirabai Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494847224950297255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5281181286737011264.post-3286726564353342382012-01-14T03:51:37.008-08:002012-01-14T03:51:37.008-08:00Hi.
