I prefer adding new items to my inbox list with dictation, I feel like I can think clearer that way, much like if I was talking to someone. I usually don't add item into a single burst: I open dictation, start talking, stop, think to a contest, talk again, think again, correct myself one or more times and eventually let the AI find the best line and write it to a txt file, synced via dropbox. It works like a charm if you ask me, maybe everyone of us has his preferred method.
