OK, so on a related note. I was just thinking about this the other day, when I had some long blog post I wanted to read but I was doing other stuff at the time and wished I had a speech synthesis plug-in for Firefox or something, that I could just highlight the text, right-click, and select "Read to me" or something. Like the Kindle, but for a web browser.
Anyone know if such a thing exists? I assume it must, esp with all the tools sight-impaired people have at their disposal now. But just a light-weight plugin, not a whole software suite. Anyone?
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Is there an audio capture for the tired eyes? :)
