- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25Ooh, I'm going to make Stephen Hawking crank calls with this.
- Sblader5, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15mom something is WRONG, W-R-O-N-G
- iBookG4, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Mom, something's wrong. W-R-O-N-G wrong.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8WOW! The short "music" that plays when you turn it on and off are memories that were way in the back of my head waiting to be brought to the forefront again!
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8***** off. Nice pirated copy of vbulletin, too.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9"That thing would wake me up in the middle of the night. 'Play with me....I wanna spell, RIGHT NOW!'"
- neoian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I want it to say words that i type in! Oh well...
- insinuate, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9What they should have called this was Speak like the Devil.
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I only play that for your mother. She does pay well, though.
- EvilDr.X, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Man, something's wrong with it. It tells me to spell anything, but no matter what I spell, it says it's wrong.
- Dumbledore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5That's what good old Microsoft Sam is for. . .
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Lol you're so ***** stupid you're pulling the digg logo off of howstuffworks. I hope they goatse you.
- AncientWeird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Pretty nifty, but when you spell a word wrong they should have it say "That is Incorrect. The correct spelling for *blank* is ..." like the real Speak-N-Spell does.
- djepik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3lol I got stuck on anything for awhile too... I tried hitting the any key too, didn't work
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Well it was a pirated vbulletin and you're using the digg logo and trademark in your URL.
Prepare to be pwned you spamming turd. - pearmanjim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3now spell ancient...

now spell ancient... - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Pretty lame really. It asked me to spell anything 3 times in a row and at least 5 times out of 10 words. Out of those 10 times, I may have gotten 4 words to spell. And why not duplicate some of hte other aspects o hte machine, like hangman?
- mara00jade, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's close... but not quite like the original =/
I had this idea a while back, but only got as far as scanning the front! (it still works though)

the days of .wavs and *P ! - Recuso, on 10/12/2007, -0/+350,000 First try.
- dralezero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I had a Computron instead. It looked like a computer and had expandable game slots.

So badass. - mc7winkie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Umm thats not really a through back speak and spell. And if you must know the only way to win at speak and spell is not to play at all
- endgame, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The first thing I thought when I saw Speak N Spell was the first Depeche Mode album was available online for FREE......I just cant get enough....LOL
- strabes, on 10/12/2007, -7/+9Judging from his popularity he obviously isn't that crappy.
- AnteChronos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"I am a digger and well aware that this is spam, I don't like to do it but there is no other way to get the message out there"
If spam is the only way to "get the message out there", then maybe the message doesn't need to get out in the first place.
"I tried digging the site and that didn't work."
That should have told you all you needed to know, but no, you had to go spam us anyway. Blocked for great justice. - Chairmonkey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I had Speak N' Math.
Number crunchers level 1! - solidsmoke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I remember my speak and spell! It was evil and asked me how to spell words like "Bureau" while I was about 4 years old. Good times.
- z.unit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Holy ***** i had that thing! could never remember the name!
- dralezero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1whoops..
- sam10685, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2who the hell can look at this now and not think of Dane Cook?
- inarguable, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dude, that Computron is badass! You still got that bad boy kicking around?
- Bobbis2000, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm pretty sure it keeps asking me to spell "Whore-y"
I feel kind of dirty now. - bshep, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Did they use walkie talkies or guns to cover it up?
- Dumbledore, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Are you kidding me?
- micro506, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Blocked. There's a reason nobody dug it.
- KiloCharley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What? are you sure that's not the v.p.?
- mv10, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe Im too Young, but how do you use this thing
It just keeps saying Err No - hansdg1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1umm just type on your keyboard...
- jake74, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1heh, look at that, my old site keeps coming round!
I'm the creator of the Speak N Spell site, thanks for your comments and I'm glad people are still enjoying it. I'm sorry I never finished it off, and I also have a Speak N Maths that never got programmed, I just drew up the artwork for it.
cheers
jake - dggeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1MTV is also popular...
so is American Idol. - MakutaBloodlust, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hehe...anyone remember that simpsons episode?
"Hih-Oh-Mih-Eh-Er"
regards,
Mih-Ah-Kih-Teh-Uh-Ah - inarguable, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@sockpuppet (and a few other losers) "Well it was a pirated vbulletin and you're using the digg logo and trademark in your URL."
God, I love these people who are so ***** high and mighty when it suits them to be...try deleting all your MP3s and pirated movies you STOLE before whining like a bitch about logo and trademark infringement, you pathetic little hypocrites. - jmp478, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That thing would give me nightmares if mine did that
- noshuke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1direct link.
http://homepage.mac.com/jakesmith/speaknspell/speaknspell.html - ChaosProfessor, on 03/10/2009, -0/+1buried because dane cook sucks ass
- BananaGrabber, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Am I the only person having so much trouble finding where each letter is even though they're in order? I'm way too used to my keyboard layout.
- briannj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I am pretty sure the real Speak N Spell says "That is Correct" and not just correct :-(
- jake74, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would have loved to make it exact. I had a Speak N Spell off ebay, but it never worked, so I had to guess how the thing actually worked.
- cbergeron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Actually, it's "Shall we play a game"... ;)
- randovaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nice, but we'll still need to keep a few hardware versions around. You know, just in case another plucky little alien botanist gets stranded here on Earth and needs a Speak-N-Spell to communicate with its mother ship. Like what happened in 1982. If you haven't heard about it, it's because the Government covered the whole thing up.
- IzeasGT, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1NOW SPELL, "COME BACK ALI. COME BACK ALI'S SISTER."
