Hi guys,
As usual, it’s been a long time since the last post. Although I don’t have difficulties talking to people, it is still strangely hard for me to post in english…
But let’s go to the news: the Voice Notes addin is already into tomboy Addins directory at the gnome svn server. Check it out [1] and apply a patch [2] to enable its compilation (it is disabled because is not stable yet).
Some notes about it:
– Present: it is not speech-to-text. At the current state, it’s just a recorder/player that keeps a voice record related to the note. And the main difference since the last post- no popup window.
– Future: it’s going to have *some* speech recognition and store only some keywords for indexation purposes. So the user will also be able to find references to the voice notes when searching, not only to the typed notes.
I’m going to make a screencast, and I’ll link it soon.
As we use to say in Brazil, “it is not the world’s 8th wonder”. But it is already usable and may become a very nice feature. There is a long road ahead, so this is just beginning. Suggestions and help are welcome. Hope you like it =)
