Stephen Hawking Reads This Blog!

OK, not really. At least as far as I know.

But you can use FeedSpeaker to have a Stephen Hawking-like voice read it to you (it's actually "Microsoft SAM"). But I think I like "Microsoft Mary" a bit more. Have a listen to her.

While the speech isn't great, it only takes a couple of minutes to adjust to it and it's very understandable. This is a pretty cool application. You could then listen to your blogroll while you do other things (surfing, driving to work, etc.). And since there are RSS feeds for news, sports, weather, and virtually everything else you've now created your own radio show on your schedule with only shows you are interested in.

Sort of a high-tech, low-fidelity, robotic, automated podcast! Posted by Chris on 12/16/2004 02:09:00 PM :: Permalink
