Swype

Well, I did a post using voice to text, so let’s try one with Swype. Swype is a keyboard replacement app that has you type by touching the first letter in the word and then dragging your fingers across all the other letters in the word without lifting your fingers. You swype, you don’t type.

So presumably the app takes the first and last letters and computes what words are possible given all the letters you touched. Sometimes it offers you choices when there are multiple possibilities.

It works amazingly well. And it’s kind of fun, especially on longer words.
