I typed "shothand video" into Google and it came up with some Gregg instruction videos, which might be useful to people who are learning or revising that system.

I was waiting for her to get back from shopping. Both vehicles parked to the left and right of the van that I was in began to back out of their parking spots giving the illusion that the van that I was in was rolling forward. I had an adrenaline spike like you wouldn't believe. I dove from the back of the van landing with some insane crawling movement to press my hand on the brake. I moved my foot up to replace my hand and looked around, noting what had really just happened.

Anyway if this is to be my last posting I may as well try and say something useful. This site www.courtreportingstudents.com seems to be mainly a paid for site, but there is one free dictation on the blog with a promise of more to com. The IPS website now has a few free taster dictations available (I have mentioned IPS before but not the dictations as they are new). Any time I have posted anything to Shorthand World, I have only been trying to be helpful and share stuff that I have found useful with others - but like I say, sniping and sarcastic comments do curb one's enthusiasm so in future if I do find anything else I'll probably keep it to myself.

They are of difficult material so maybe for the more advanced shorthand writer or machine stenographer and some of the links are dead - but plenty still work - so try typing "Free dictation Facebook" (or I suppose you could search directly on Facebook if you are part of the Facebook Community - I'm not!!!
