VozMe.com is a free web based application to convert text into MP3 audio. VozMe converts the text you type or copy to a simple textbox provided on site into an mp3 file, which can be downloaded and used anywhere, including simple integration to your website and blog. VozMe also provides a Google gadget to add to your Google homepage (iGoogle).

VozMe.com provided JavaScript to help bloggers and webmasters to integrate the widget into their blogs and websites. It enables the users to listen to the text in your website. VozMe also provides plugins for Wordpress, Blogger, and some other platforms to help in integration.

At the moment, the following languages are supported: English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Catalan, but the localization list is growing pretty fast. You can also choose male or female voice for your recording.

Application is absolutely free and does not require registration for the services.

The technology was developed to create audio books and to assist visually impaired people. For normal blogging, it might not be very useful.

My wife was working for company at NASA developing new technologies for physically impaired. It is amazing, what modern technologies can do for these people. Unfortunately, all the devices are very expensive, and cannot be afforded by majority, in spite of the government assistance. In the poorer countries, being physically impaired might lead to complete isolation from the society.

Did you get any feedback from your readers?

rdy	Nov 17 2008 09:33 am about the heavy page download? no. i just tested it myself. anyway, i have deleted the application because the voice did not come out. i still do not know why. my headset is OK. never mind..., my blog is still under trial and error :-) reply

i succeed in attaching the script into the html. no errors. when i view the page and click the icon of vozme, it opens another new window and seems to play the speech but no sounds at all. maybe some settings are wrong in my blog? by the way, the comments on your YST are not viewed though you have replied it. is there any problem with YST?

I sent a note about comments to YST. Regarding the widget, I did not try it myself, but I saw many comments from people, who were using it with no problems. You can check the developers website for assistance.

rdy	Nov 5 2008 11:00 pm OK... thanks reply

JIMA	Nov 15 2008 08:12 pm I will certainly check this out. Thanks! reply
