Adjustable Laptop Desk by Zenovika [Review]

Tips and Tools

Transcribe Audio and Video Files with TEMI [Review]

Tips and Tools

Can you talk faster than you can type? How many pieces of content could you produce if you could simply transcribe your ideas and watch them come to life? If you’re like most business owners, you have a ton of info in your head, and not enough time to pour it all out in a useful, logical fashion that you can then review and repurpose as needed. Writing takes too much time, typing takes too much time. You could use speech to text, but that doesn’t work for me. As far as I am concerned, I speak the queen’s English and the speech to text tools never work for me! I’ve tried apps and software and they just don’t work for me. Besides, if I see what the app is…
