• Chrome 11 Beta Brings Voice-to-Text Capabilities

    Google has pushed Chrome 11 to the beta channel, bringing a couple of improvements, including the browser’s ability to transcribe voice to text.
    With this new feature, users can click an icon and speak into the computer’s microphone, and the browser will turn the speech into text. You can try it out at this demo page.

    The Chrome 11 beta release also brings GPU-accelerated 3D CSS, meaning develeopers can use CSS to deliver fancy 3D effects. The version also features the new Chrome icon.

      Given that he types in a strange way... I think he might have already implemented some kind of TTS service
