If you've been writing on a computer for more than a few months, you've likely had something happen to your power, or hard drive, or files that have caused you to lose work.

It's called Second Copy and I strongly suggest you take a look at it. You can try it free for 30 days. I had questions, and the support was quick, polite and helpful.

Dictate your letter or manuscript over the phone to WeType4U.com's toll-free number, and within 24 hours you will receive the document in your e-mail. I tried it for a taped interview (you can pause at any time during the dictation, so I paused to listen to a bit of the tape, then repeated that portion into the phone). It took some time that way, but much less than transcribing it myself. I was quite pleased with the results, which would have been even better if I had first gone over the dictation suggestions on their site — a word to the.wise. If you already have someone to transcribe your tapes, this could be a good backup.
