What a coincidence. I was just over at Karen’s 3 Garnets & 2 Sapphires blog reading about Dragon Naturally Speaking and their discount of a $50 Coupon Code- DNSMSBG -Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 Preferred and thinking, “Why didn’t I put this on my list?” Every time I’ve seen it I’ve thought that I’d love to give it a try. Then I came back and was writing up my thank you posts to discover that I too had the chance to review this software again and share with you a great set of discounts that are valid until the end of the year. Maybe you are like me and frequently get cash for the holidays. If so, you could put it to use and look at the Dragon Naturally Speaking software.
Karen talked about how great it would be for her husband while he plays video games and for her blogging. I have to agree that I’d love to see it at work on a blog. I tend to create a lot of worksheets and such for my classes also, and I’d love to try it for that also.
My dad was just mentioning that he could use a couple more tax write-offs for his business today..I wonder if I could convince him that his business needs this software? Hmmm….I wonder….
Between now and the end of the year, Dragon Naturally Speaking is offering the following discounts. If this is something you’ve been thinking about, you might want to go check it out before December 31.
After receiving the opportunity to blog about this, I thought this would be interesting to throw out there to my fellow bloggers – after all, a blogger has to do a lot of typing. After reading about Dragon Naturally Speaking 10 and it’s promise to increase your typing speeds, I am curious to know just how it works.
Thanks to my agreeing to post this review of Dragon Naturally Speaking, Nuance is allowing us to offer our readers a 25% Discount Coupon CODE Exclusive for Dragon Naturally Speaking, but you must click the image below and use this code (DNSMSBG) Together. Code will not work from other sources.

Hello my name is Brett Bumeter and I would like to introduce you to Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10. Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 is a program that enables you to type with your voice by speaking out loud. All you have to do is speak in a normal voice at a normal rate of speed, and your computer will capture every word that you say almost. The program claims to have about 99% accuracy, and it’s been my experience using the program over the last two years through versions nine and version 10 that this claim is extremely accurate.
The program is extremely fast whether you’re using a noise canceling microphone headset plugged into your computer or whether you’re using a pocket MP3 recorder. I actually use both setups and have had great success having my voice and words turned into text by typing them into my computer, as well as using my voice to turn my words into an MP3 file on my MP3 recorder which I can then import into my computer via USB, and have Dragon NaturallySpeaking transcribe those words automatically into text while the computer does something else.
Right now I am writing this particular note to you to kind of show you just what Dragon NaturallySpeaking can do. I say show you because I’m writing this letter with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10. It doesn’t take a lot of effort to write with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10, but it does take a little practice in order to start thinking quickly and thinking out loud with your voice. That the nice thing about it is that you don’t have to stare at your computer screen for long hours anymore.
Typically when we type with our hands, we tend to look at the computer that were typing on. To be more specific we tend to look at the computer screen, and this wears out our eyes and makes us physically tired. The muscles in our eyes absorb all that light from the screen, and the longer we stare at that light the more tired our body becomes. This can even lead to headaches or migraines or just fatigue in general.
So the cool thing about Dragon NaturallySpeaking is that you can look around the room, look around where ever you happen to be, and taken some sights and smells in that you normally wouldn’t have the luxury of doing with your eyes glued to your screen. This really does help to keep your brain moving, and it helps get you thinking outside the box and focused on those things that you need to be focused on.
If you are the type of person that uses a white board quite a bit, you can even stand up and start brainstorming on a whiteboard, while you are simultaneously dictating the thoughts that come to you onto your computer. Now that’s not necessarily the most effective way to capture information off of a whiteboard, but if you need the information copied into text form, it can be very useful and I’m simply trying to illustrate a point.
There are many ways that you can use this particular program to save you a great deal of time, to further illustrate that point, I have written this entire note so far in under three minutes flat! That’s a little over 175 words per minute, and this is actually the fastest ever time that I have recorded with Dragon NaturallySpeaking. When I used version 9, I had clocked the program running at about 167 words per minute, and so with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 10 and a brand-new laptop, I have just set a new personal record.
That doesn’t include editing time which I will go back and do now, but it’s still amazing to be a laugh your words and thoughts captured so quickly by your computer.
Sincerely,
Brett Bumeter

PS Even with 3 minutes of editing thrown in (which included writing the salutation and a few more lines) this article still only took 6 minutes to write, and that averages out to about 92 words per minute!
