As you might know, you can increase the functionality of the Chrome web browser by adding miscellaneous extensions. One of these nice extensions is the Read Aloud by lsdsoftware.com.
“Read Aloud uses text-to-speech (TTS) technology to convert webpage text to audio. It works on a variety of websites, including news sites, blogs, fan fiction, publications, textbooks, school and class websites, and online university course materials.
Read Aloud can read PDF, Google Docs, Google Play books, Amazon Kindle, and EPUB (via the excellent EPUBReader extension from epubread.com).
Read Aloud is intended for users who prefer to listen to content instead of reading, those with dyslexia or other learning disabilities, and children learning to read.“
The above is quoted from Read Aloud’s presentation on Google Web Store and you can read all this and more by following this link.
I’ve just installed it in my Crome browser and it works like a charm! A great little extension that turns the AERIALIS Kites – and other websites – into podcasts! Well… sort of!
Check out the video below to see how it works!
