Listen to a post in a click - Talkr FeedFlare!

Thanks for Mike Perry over on BLAUGI for letting me know a couple of features of this blog can merge to make every post talk!

I’ve had a feed for Talkr, which converts text to speech, available for some time. Thanks to FeedBurner Flare + Talkr you can now hear any post by clicking it’s “Listen to this” link. This relies on Talkr performing the conversion which seems to happen within a few hours of posting.

Talkr is pretty clever as tries to add appropriate expression to the sentence. It’s not just a boring monotone voice and also copes pretty well with “non English” technical terms. I think it pronounces hippopotomonstrosesquipedalianism better than I can!

It does stumble a little with my made up name “RobiNZ” but I find “Robe-in-zee” quite endearing!

If you have a Blog and use FeedBurner learn how to make your own posts talk here.
