The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.
There’s a 13 year old posting impressive speeds of Handywrite shorthand these last few months. His name is Jan but goes under ‘ocergnairb’ I wonder if he surfs this forum? The major thing I noticed as a pose to my own studies, is that after 3 months he was having almost no gaps between words….
I posted a photo in the photo section because I thought this was interesting. I found the magazine at a second hand store and since it has crochet in it (my other hobby) I bought it. I flipped through it and found this ad. I love (not) how it says she went to a “glorious…
Found this in an old magazine I got from a second hand store for .25 cents. It’s from a Wordbasket magazine. It’s for speedwriting, but I thought it was interesting enough to shar anyway. For some reason my eye caught this particular ad when flipping through the magazine… hmm… 😉 (by Deborah for everyone)
I ran across this site today: http://www.nypl.org/research/chss/spe/rbk/faids/greggj.pdf I apologize for not being able to get the link to be clickable. Has anyone been to the New York Public Library to see this collection? It would be wonderful to be able to see these things. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
If you are a left-handed underwriter, and would be willing to answer a couple of questions from a beginner, could you please send me a PM(private message)? Many thanks. (by Shorthand-learner for everyone)
(by Shorthand-learner for everyone) I was most interested in these books and she can’t send them. So, I offered to post them here. They belonged to her aunt. http://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/bks/1187867549.html Gregg Shorthand books/magazines – $1 (Lisle) Reply to:sale-dpypk-1187867549@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]Date: 2009-05-25, 11:31AM CDT Title Gregg Shorthand: A Light-Line Phonography for the Million Author John…
http://www.shorthandshorthandshorthand.com/ Marc Semler’s site, chock-full of shorthand information.
Folks, I had to move my shorthand site to http://www.shorthandshorthandshorthand.com/ since Geocities (the free place) is closing. Anyone going to the old site is automatically redirected. One of these days, if I ever get the time, now that I have more space, I want to add dictation. . . . Marc (by Marc for everyone)
I’d like to know whether any such living copy of German Gregg Shorthand exists? Of course the gregg.angelfishy.net has the german gregg manual, but there is only one small page at the end of actual text. Michael.btw haven’t posted on here for a while. I haven’t given up on shorthand and still do it regularly…
Can anyone provide updates on this course (see thread below)? I tried to read the other link this thread provides but MSN closed their groups. I’m considering it becase I can’t seem to get myself to regularly teach myself shorthand and I think a class like environment might help. Any suggestions? http://greggshorthand.multiply.com/journal/item/944/Online_Shorthand_Course_Shorthand_101 (by moonlyt for…
