Text to Speech

A subscriber sent me this tip. It's a good one. The freeware program Panopreter converts text to speech

Use it online to listen to anything.

If you have written something, paste it in and listen. You will spot errors. When you read it, you can miss them. Listening is much better for identifying errors.

You can use it to create an MP3 file. Then listen to it with your MP3 player. Download it here:

He made a nice screencast video on it. (This is the way to teach from the Web.)
