Text-to-speech for your weblog.

Talkr.

Not sure how many elearnspace readers listen to podcasts, but I came across this site (via unmediated) - Talkr: "Talkr provides a service that allows you to listen to your favorite text-only news sources rather than read them. If you can point us to an RSS feed (a machine-readable version of your favorite blog or news source) we will convert that feed from text to speech." I've applied for elearnspace. Will post once it's approved.
