annyang! is a JavaScript speech recognition library created by Tal Ater that lets users control your site with voice commands. Speech recognition is one of the features of HTML5 that allows JavaScript to have access to a browser’s audio stream and convert it to text. annyang! supports multiple languages, has no dependencies, weighs just 2kb, and is free to use and modify under the MIT license. The demo only runs in Google Chrome for now. I did a couple of test runs and the results are pretty accurate. Plug in your mic and give it a try!
