Voice Control - Promo One

from Celebrate Creativity Hosted by George Bartley

Send us Fan Mail Hello this is George Bartley. And no, I have not fallen off the face of the Earth. In fact, my podcast Celebrate Creativity - with its current emphasis on William Shakespeare was in high gear - at one point I was doing two and even three episodes a day. Currently Celebrate Creativity has over 32,000 episodes globally. But that rate of output really couldn't continue very long and I started experiencing excruciating pain in my wrists and hands. As a result, I became fascinated with a way of communicating with a MacIntosh that was totally new to me - a sophisticated way of dictating and controlling all the icons and buttons that you normally work with totally by voice. So I am starting a new podcast series called how to talk with your MacIntosh - later on we'll get into operating iPads and iPhones by voice. And this is one podcast that I am really working hard on - because I definitely do not want it to be a series of flashy comments that end up teaching you nothing. After a bit of practice, I want you to be able to use your MacIntosh, almost as though you were talking with a friend. In other words I want to show you vocal commands that work and are easy to use. It may take practice, but it is sooooo worth it! My goal is to teach you how to sit back and tell your Mac what you want it to do using only your voice. I have never worked as hard on a podcast, and plan to start the podcast on the first day of the lusty month of May. In the meantime I will have more promos on April the 10th, 17th, and 24th - each on a Friday - regarding the buildup to this very important podcast - I want to be sure that you gain a strong foundation in learning Voice Control for a variety of reasons, not the least is that your hands will thank you. And watching all those files and folders move across the computer screen to obey your voice it's about as close to magic as I have ever experienced! So join me May 1, 2026 for a solid introduction to voice control that combines the definitely practical with the seemingly magical! Support the show Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
