Speech recognition in the browser

/* 
 This is really interesting, I had no idea.

 HTML5 includes built in speech recognition, which is stupid easy to use:

 Open your console and enter:
*/

var recognition = new webkitSpeechRecognition();
recognition.continuous = true;
recognition.interimResults = true;
recognition.onresult = function(event) { 
  console.log(event) 
}
recognition.start();

/*

You’ll be asked for access to your mic, allow that and then say something. The console will log a packet that looks like this:

{
  ..
  results: {
    0: {
      0: {
        confidence: 0.695017397403717,
        transcript: "look Mum I'm talking into a web page!"
      },
      isFinal:true,
      length:1
    },
    length:1
  },
  ..
}
