VOICE TEXTING ON A PC ??
Being old and somewhat clumsy, I try to do more voice texting than finger. Besides that I'm a one to two finger typer.
I use Google voice on my phone with a reasonable 90% accuracy. However, if I don't proof read the text before sending,
it could be kinda embarrassing. Not sure if there is a better way?
My question is: is there a way that I could set up my PC to do the same thing? That is, to voice text while surfing the
internet or whatever? And if so, what would be needed besides a bluetooth headset? Thanks much for your time............

You can send and receive text on a PC by setting up and using a Google Voice number. Works pretty good.

Thanks Spyware Dr; That wasn't quite what I had in mind. What I was hoping for, was the "hey Google thing" where I could click on the mike & ask a question, search the web etc.
That website covered only phone call texting & not web surfing....

UPDATE:
I found my answer shortly after I made my last post. So far, it seems to be working pretty good.
So now I have the best of two worlds :) Thanks again..................

Click Google's Mic and talk (with your headset w/Mic on of course). :)

Oh. That's easy. Never actually noticed that on my desktop.

That's a pretty neat illustration there SpyDr. but that didn't work for me. When I ticked it, it stated mike was disabled. So somewhere I found that by going into the Google account setting,
I found where to enable it. However, later in the day I tried to set up my wife's PC & could not find that source, so fink, I'm still looking...... :((

In Google Chrome settings/ Advanced/Content settings/ Mike on/off.
This setting for some unknown reason has disappeared. However, the mike is working ok.

In the Chrome browser, press [Ctrl][T] (to open a new Tab) and then click the Mic(rophone icon) at the end of Google's Search Bar.
Works for me.
