TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
However, Dragon Naturally Speaking is trained individually. For example, I
can have a profile and use that profile for any of my transcriptions. Nobody
else can use that same profile. If they do, the profile is "retrained" for
me and that person, and the end result is a big mess. If only one person is
talking in the Podcast, the no problem. If more than one person is talking,
then you may end up with a bigger mess than if you type the transcript
yourself.
Disclaimer....I haven't used DNS for over five years, so things may have
changed. It's a good program, but maybe not for your use.

Dragon Naturally Speaking, with a modicum of training, is very accurate.
