Freeware February doubleshot: Zombies and eBooks do an iPod good

Here’s one useful application: iPod eBook creator takes a large text file and splits it up into iPod-sized nuggets for reading using Notes. This is a sweet thing for taking eBooks or any large document on the road. Next - I want Text-to-Speech to be a default function of Notes so that I can have my iPod read me the books (I know I can do this beforehand on my Mac and upload the audio file, but invariably I won’t have done it at exactly the time I need it!).

And here’s a cool instance of the usage of that application: Monster Island: the manhattan zombie apocalypse - a zombie novel for your iPod, by David Wellington. Tres cool! The Notes application will bookmark the last page you’ve read, too, so it’s easy to read in installments. Bored with the same old content? Go and pick up a little undead for your portable audio buddy.
