Hiya Dennis, fancy seeing you here! I am in the same boat as you regarding “the voice”, and I feel that the current trend towards video is ultimately going to make podcasts redundant to quite a large extent. What do you think?

Thank you Desiree & Welcome

Cynthia – I agree about the punctuation. I noticed that it doesnt handle my lack of apostrophe’s very well either!

As a side note, it’d be cool if it read the comments to you as well…

Hi Lynn,

I’ve been following your work for some time now and just love it!

Odiogo widget is fantastic – looking forward to hearing the different accents. If they need a London, England female accent, I’m up for the job!!!

(I’m so hooked on your blog I’ve just spent the last 3 hours catching up on missed posts!

You can disregard my previous message as I’ve resolved the situation. Just in case someone else has this problem, I’ll share my solution.

I had changed my RSS setting in WP to “full text” after I had activated the plugin. Apparently that was the problem, because I deactivated the plugin and the reactivated and now it is working fine.

I also notice a little quirk people need to be aware of. If you don’t have a period at the end of your sentence, the speaker will keep reading the next sentence as if they are one. So it looks like you must be very careful with punctuation, because the punctuation is a guide for the bot to pause.

Cool little tool. Thanks.

However, I put it on my blog and have a couple problems. I changed my RSS setting as the instructions said to “full text” but my listen button only plays a snippet.

I emailed them and they emailed back and said my feed was only displaying snippets. I use feedburner so I thought the problem must be there, but I looked around in my feedburner account and can’t find a place that addresses this.

Has anyone had this problem or now how I can resolve it?

The other problem is that the widget only dispalys on the home page and in the blog posts. It doesn’t display on any of my other pages.

Thanks

I think it’s got great potential. Funny, though that it spells some things out – your blog is “Click-n-e-w-z”.

Lynn, thanks for sharing the new tool. I visited another website today that was using it.

Thanks Lynn. Hope they improve the voice quickly. As the detractors have noted “it isn’t new” so what ! It is a mostly painless install(or put another way almost plug and play)that actually works when the last step is taken, also no “Fatal Errors”. Either of which hasn’t always been the outcome for a wp-plugin.

Lastly it could help improve the quality of the posts

It’s not exactly new to the ‘net, but always good to see people try things new to them.

I wouldn’t personally for 2 reasons….the voice, and the fact that it actually spells some words; am I the only one this annoys? LOL
