WEBSITE OF THE WEEK:

Hearwho.comis a website that allows you to turn up to 3000 characters of text into audio files. Just copy the text into the text box, chose the voice you want to dictate the text, and click on Start Conversion. The great thing about the site is the fact that you can also take Spanish language texts and put them into sound. This could be a great tool for people learning Spanish to use for better understanding texts and things of that nature. It could also allow you to store small articles for you to listen too while on the go on your iPod. In short, the site provides you with the ability to turn text into an mp3 file. Do whatever you want with it. http://www.hearwho.com


PREVIOUS WEBSITES:
Say2Go is a next generation instant messaging client that allows you to record voice messages and send them in text and voice formats. Instead of typing an instant message, simply press and hold the space bar and then speak your message into your microphone. When you release the spacebar, you can listen to your message and record again if you don’t like it, or send it. The recipient receives your voice message as a converted text message and can also choose to listen to the original voice message if they desire. You can also schedule messages to be sent at a later date which is a great way of sending yourself reminders. http://www.say2go.com
