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.

Hi all 🙂 I was wondering if there were any other “bilingual” stenographers here. Last week, I enrolled in a local legal college to study stenotype (Pheonix theory). I intend to become certified at 225wpm both in stenotype and Anniversay Gregg. The president of the college was delighted to learn that I write, since that’s…
I was looking through my crossword puzzle book (an old one) and found this clue Shorthand for Short (by debbiavon1 for everyone)
Alison (troutgirl1501) has posted an interesting picture in the “Pictures” section of the site. It came right out of one of the editions of a DJS book. Alex (BeanTea) had made a reference in a few days ago in a post in the General Forum about “spotting the celebrity”, but not knowing what it was…
As a spam-controlling measure, if any user wants to post a link in our Links section of the site, you can send John or me a note, or post your suggestion under this topic. Luckily, the announcements for escort services will dwindle dramatically. (by Carlos for everyone)
I am a month and a half into my study of anniversary and the first thing I’ve been using my skills for is not in fact writing fast–even if after a month of anniversary I could miraculously do that, but to write secret notes to myself that I don’t want others to see. My notes are…
Since I’ve resumed my Pitman New Era studies, my attention has been brought again to this system found on the wonderfull archive.org. Was wondering if anybody has heard anything about it or has any opinions? It looks super fast and simpler than Pitman, and maybe even simpler than the older versions of Gregg. It uses…
I’ve attached a sample of some shorthand sent to me by tennfan07@bellsouth.net who wants the material transcribed. I think it’s Simplified and isn’t badly written. I did indicate there is usually a charge for the service. No need to let me know if you’re interested; let her (I think it’s a she) know directly. Marc…
Ages ago I asked about study buddies. I’m thinking bloggish. Things we’ve noticed or had troubles with that we can’t share with non-shorthand people, and would bore those who have more experience. I am often online between 10 and 2 on school days, Toronto time zone (EST), but I don’t hang out in chat rooms…
This note is to remind users about the two rules of the group and explain what is meant by them. To preserve the Gregg Shorthand Group’s fertility as a greenhouse for diverse ideas, the only requirement is that posts are (1) relevant and (2) kind. What do we mean by relevant? Posts in the General section are those…
