I have started using my laptop in bed. I would like to use Voice
Recognition. I tried it once before and it was tiring, but it is also
tiring to use the touch pad.

About the main thing I want to do is just read a little RSS news with
Google Reader.

One thing has already become very annoying. GR expects "page down" to
scroll through the text. GR only understands this command half of the
time. Is there a way to improve the accuracy of a certain word?

Is there a more active Usenet group to ask Voice Recognition
questions?

Is there a better free RSS reader then GR? I just started using RSS
feeds a couple of weeks ago. GR has "improved" GR in the last day or
two and I already like it less.

I have no idea what "GR" is.

I like Feedreader.

I also use Feedreader even though it appears it is no longer being
developed. Also look around the site and get Feedreader Backup. This
program will allow you to reduce the size of the data file. There is no
way to compact the data file to remove old messages except with the use
of Feedreader Backup (this program was hard for me to find on the site).

I tried it briefly for a day before I packed it away again. Complete
utter crap.
