I know what you mean, Suzanne, about the Eclipse software. There is SO MUCH available that it's hard to figure which way to go. But, sorry, I'm a newbie, too, on the software and it will be a long time before I can give anyone advice on it! I'm just trying to get my speed up enough so that I can make a decent living and THEN I'll be checking out "all" it has to offer. Basically, for me in scoping though, I've found I need to learn enough to start working and add on features and speed as I go. I imagine it will be the same for you too. So, I think we're about in the same boat there, i.e. patience and perseverance are key! I don't know about you, but I am not patient and that is a tall order for me but I haven't found any way around it just yet!
I'm a court reporting student, too! How's school going? I go to Tri-Community, and I'm at 160 wpm... trying to finish as soon as I can! Aren't we all? Hehehe.
Please check out my blog -- stenonerd.blogspot.com -- where I chronicle my court reporting journey and where I hope to be a fun, informative, consistent resource for fellow court reporters, both students and professionals. Thanks in advance! :)
I hope you have a great year ahead of you! HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :D
Suzanne, Because I am nosy and visit this site while having my morning coffee, I understand you are on Eclipse. Have you read any of the posts in the Total Eclipse group here??? There's some really good info. Did you know there's a built-in tutor program called Fourth Tutor??? It's the easiest - and cheapest - way to learn the neato features of Eclipse.
Check it out and let me know how you do! My sister and brother are reporters too. We all know how tough it is to get through school. Good luck!
