Q: How do I dictate an email in Gmail?

Install Glipsy, click into the message, double-tap Shift and talk. Double-tap Shift again when you're done. The text lands where your cursor was, with punctuation.

Q: Can Glipsy read my emails out loud?

Talking is faster than typing.

Most people type about 40 words a minute, and talk at about 150.

Thanks for the notes. I read through them this morning and I think the plan works. Let's keep the launch on Thursday, move the review to Tuesday, and I'll write up the open questions tonight so nobody is blocked.
