Another technology that was supposed to change the world was speech to text. The idea was that everyone would be writing so much more because you just needed to talk, and isn't that easier than typing.

I've even tried this. It's not that great. It's really hard, as it turns out, to speak like the written word.

Even when I'd get most of full short story down the editing was a nightmare.

I wonder if anyone writes by dictation? Some people must. But I suspect it takes practice.
