Hey, I'm sick of reading myself and would like to download some software for free that reads web pages for you.
I have done the trick in ms excel before but that only works while you have excel open and I don't want to sit in front of the computer listening to it without being able to use other programs at the same time.
Surely there are programs out there available for this purpose.

I've been testing a tonne of this software over the last 18 months.
Very long story short, it's all a bit shit. Different page formatting breaks different packages, none of them sound all that fantastic and it's generally more trouble than it's worth.
If you're a complete glutton for punishment I may be able to hook you up with some trial software from one of the better groups to see what you think, but I guarantee you will be underwhelmed with even the best results. Honestly, text to voice still has a long way to go.
The only 'cool' software I've seen is the one that reads images! Open a bmp or jpg of a scanned page, and away it goes.

You talk about domination, but have you ever caress her spine with your fingertips, Bedded her for the night, or gotten lost in her beauty?
macs have text to speech built in with different voices and options to suit eg speed up or slow down and stuff aswell as voice commands to do shit
the name is Trevor like me to spell it for you
yeah i set up my old powermac to run almost totally on voice commands, took a while for it to "learn" my voice but it worked

The one many big govt departments use, as it is able to handle all sorts of crap, is called Dragon i think. Thats all i know about it though
