Here I am writing another post thanks to David Cohen, this time for sharing BlogBard with me. He's got it installed on the ColoradoStartups blog and I just added it to mine. You'll see a little player over to the right where it says "Listen to my Blog" (cleverly hidden I know).

Give it a listen, I actually think the digital voice is really good, one of the best I've ever heard. The phrasing is especially nice, it feels more like a person with a robot voice than a computer (pausing at the commas, periods, etc). Pronunciation is also very good saying "I - T" instead of "it" (when things are capitalized). I'm already finding it useful by playing blog posts in the background while I do things around the house.

You can subscribe to the audio files using iTunes therefore syncing them to your iPod or iPhone. When creating an account on their site you can manage all the various blogs you want to listen to by providing RSS feeds for each. It works similar to Newsgator Online but with sound (and of course a LOT less features).

So let me know, is it just my inner-dork that likes this or is it actually useful.
