Hi Nimit, It all depends on the question you record along with your picture. If, for example, I send a picture of the LCD screen of my thermostat via VizWiz and do not record a question like "What is the temperature shown on this thermostat display"? I may not get an answer or maybe I get an answer like "LCD screen with numbers". The advantage of VizWiz is that you can send a picture to a web worker and ask a very specific question regarding the picture. I haven't used Tap Tap See, but I don't recall reading that you can send a question along with your picture, can you?

Hello! I heard there are people who work for it and answer question of the picture you send unless it's computorized already? Maybe your picture wasn't so common and the person took a while to get to you? Just a guesss. I have tried wiz-wiz and I am really confused. Thanks! The descriptions sometimes don't help me.
