I thought the Google widget search was too slow. I was right, but that’s because I wasn’t using it correctly. If instead of trying to type in the search widget, I tap the microphone and say, “Okay Google,” it works perfectly! Actually, now that I’m using it, as long as there isn’t too much background noise, the voice recognition feature of the Galaxy S3 is pretty damned good. Of course, I still have to go back in and fix some minor punctuation and capitalization errors, but that takes far less time than it would to sit and type the whole thing. Also, since I have this thing open anyway, we are so far, so good for closing on the house on Friday. This assumes nothing horrific happens between now and then. At that point we should have the keys in our hands and can start moving our stuff. I’m trying not to be too excited until we have actually signed everything and the house is truly ours. Oh my god, English has a lot of homophones and there is no way to tell voice recognition which one you mean to use!
