Do you ever experience pain, numbness, or tingling in your hands or arms after putting in long hours on the computer? When you do, do you push on and postpone self-care until you've met the current deadline (and the next, and the next)? We all know that we should take frequent breaks, stretch and change position often, and set up our workstations ergonomically, but how many of us actually do all this? If you need some incentive to start taking your body's signals seriously, come hear the lessons learned by one "Type A" technical communicator who learned the hard way.

You'll also see a demonstration of the Dragon NaturallySpeaking voice-recognition software that shows what the software can do, and what it cannot do. Our Dragon NaturallySpeaking consultant will discuss hardware requirements, third-party software compatibility, training experience and needs, funding issues (workers’ comp, rehab, corporate), and reasonable expectations for use of voice recognition software.
