Newsworthy Audio
A little over a year ago, I participated in an acceptance test for an upcomming service called NewsworthyAudio. The service converts news stories to audio. During the test, there were stories read by people, and others read by computers. Sometimes it was hard to tell the difference between a person and a machine. They have software that has many “bits” of a real person speaking that strings those bits together to read out the story.
I bring this up because they sent me an email today regarding there service. They have 5 new free podcasts available in the iTunes library. They are also taking surveys in return for a free week of there service once they go live. If you are interested in what they are about, head on over to register and take the survey. After that, subscribe to the iTunes feed and listen.
