Dear Chums
I am testing out a new toy on this site that, if it works, I will roll out across the other sites in the www.kenfrost.com network.
Introducing audio posts!
Those of you who are too lazy, pissed, or stupid to read the text can sit back and listen to it being read for you. All you have to do is click the "listen now" link, at the top left hand corner of each post.
You can even subscribe to feed the post into iTunes or other media, by clicking the link at the bottom.
The only downside is that the voice is not mine and that it is American (no offence to my American friends, but this site should be read in a British accent).
Anyhoo, let's take it for a spin. Here are a few words that feature regularly on this site:
-Knobhead
-Twat
-Council
-Prat
-Utter Bollocks
-Jobsworth
-Fark
-Nanny
Enjoy!
Ken
Seems like a good idea.
ReplyDeleteAT&T have a reasonably attractive English voice (Audrey) at:

The only problem is, ideally you need the relevant audio tools on your PC to use and edit the audio clips. Also, they used to be a bit touchy about its uses.
Ken,
ReplyDeleteCan you hire the "Mind The Gap" chick?
I hear she is looking for work...
