I'm back on Speech!

Mwa, ha, ha, haaa!  Yes, I've (re) joined the Speech at Microsoft team (yay!) where all sorts of speech grooviness is happening, in bigger, better and cooler-than-ever ways (seriously!). 

Years ago, when I started this blog, it was to talk about speech APIs, and I'm going to return to those roots, 'coz it's cool, it's fun, it's what I work on, and judging by the page hit stats, at least some of you liked what I wrote about.

BTW, check this out.  Speech is now a top level item in the MSDN Library:

Yep, SAPI, embedded, servers and Tellme documentation, all in one place:

Also, look at the System.Speech.XXXX namespaces for the .Net Framework speech API (e.g. System.Speech.Recognition, etc).

If you’re not sure what some of these technologies are, the microsoft.com/speech site should help (it also has a nice new facelift):

It's awesome to be working on speech again.  Did I mention that?

Cheers,
