Wouldn’t you like to talk to your APEX app?

Roel Hartman on 17 January 2012 with 1 comments

You may be familiar with Martin Giffy D’Souza’s blog talkapex.com (if you’re not, check it out – it’s really worthwhile). But wouldn’t it be nice to not only talk about APEX, but also to APEX?

The only thing you need is a recent version of Chrome (11 or up) and a microphone. And then…just by entering “x-webkit-speech” to the HTML Form Element Attributes of your input item, you have speech-enabled your application! You can read more and view screenshots on my blog
