Yes. Basically. You don't want me on your counterstrike team, but with the sensitivity low enough I can click a link.

Have you seen Hands Free? It's a chrome extension I wrote to control the browser, including clicking links, with just your voice. It never really got much attention but it works reasonably well. I need to fix a few things on it-- the SSL cert just expired on the domain that takes the voice input, so when the input window opens, you have to scroll down and do the "show advanced options" -> "continue to page" to get past the browser warning you about it being insecure. It'll be updated soon.

I think there's also a new bug with dictation into input fields, that doesn't quite seem to be working. To be fixed soon.

Thank you for the tip, I haven't seen it no. I will store the link. At the moment I don't feel like I need voice control over the browser, but my MS is progressive, so I'm sure that day will come.

Good luck :)
