Sovereign Message System Introduced

I am currently working on an interesting new type of messaging system. It could be deployed globally or could be a very niche product. Actually, due to the specifications of the system, it would be very niche oriented but it could be quite cool.

I thought about keeping the Soveriegn Message System tight lipped and under the radar, but decided to throw the idea out there and get ideas from other people. Basically, I have a bullet list of some of the specifications. The goal of the system is to put individuals in complete control of their own message/email needs.

- Each person has their own server space
- Each person has their own key and key address, each is totally unique
- Key Addresses correspond to Server Addresses
- Keys correspond to individual mailboxes
- Messages are sent as Encrypted XML
- When messages are sent, they first undergo a ping, if the sender key is on an approved list then the message is uploaded to the recipient server. If not then a message is left asking the recipient to authorize the message. (This behavior can be changed via security settings.)
- Messages, after decryption, can be read in a standard RSS/Atom reader.

At its heart, the Sovereign Message System basically entails people adding to each others personal RSS/Atom feed. At all times the individual retains control over their own email and through authoritative key address servers (operating in the same way as RSA key servers do).

I’d love to hear feedback on this idea.

Update On Progress With Dragon NaturallySpeaking

I thought it was time to give another report about how I’m progressing with using Dragon NaturallySpeaking in order to increase my productivity as a blogger. I would say so far so good. I find that it’s much easier to write a blog post and get it published quickly and easily.

I’m also using it in my paid writing. I find it makes me extremely productive when I need to write up content quickly and easily. I can easily hammer out a few thousand words in just a few minutes, well not quite a couple of minutes, but it’s very quick.

Voice Recognition Solutions

I am currently investigating using a voice recognition system to help me create even more content, more quickly and easily. There looks to be two options out there in terms of voice recognition software.

Last night, I tried setting up the voice recognition software that comes standard with Windows Vista. Unfortunately, after a lot of playing around with it, I couldn’t find any real success with getting it to recognize my speech, at least not in anything less than an irritating way.

The other option out there is Dragon Naturally Speaking. I think I might find a cheap version of it and see how it works. If it works good, then maybe I can go with a more advanced version. Does anyone have any experience with Dragon Naturally Speaking?
