Well you may have noticed this new button found in posts which is called 'Text to Speech'
Well I thought it would be neat to trial something unique and different here on GzN, so here it is, text to speech ^^ It does exactly that. It will convert any text you type and convert it to speech. Pros: - saves you reading long posts.
- suitable for lazy people lol
- good for people who are blind or not the best readers (maybe ^^)
Cons: - voice is not always the clearest
- people who do not type in proper English will affect how well the speech is read
- sometimes the voice is quite fast
- not suitable for all posts, as it is faster to just read most posts lol
Well I am going to be trialling different voices, different services and basically just experimenting with things. Feedback is welcome.

| Yeah, thats going to be a problem, as more often than not, people on here type fairly distorted English... lol (and i want to see the pronunciation of "lol" and "rofl" haha)
Edit: I just tried it out...oh man oh man...Its like listening to a monotoned, foreign professor. LOL Quote: |
orks kinda good already test it on juegalol staff post and I could understand it lol
| My staff posts are only around 500-1000 words long...nothing big. =]
Test: Oh yeah baby, give it to me all night long! WOOT! HELL YEAH! Give it to me!
Edit: It didnt work after I added that "test" line right above. LOL

A little update. I have found a new system which has a really good voice which is not monotone. I need to find out more info on it, but it looks promising.

Lol @ "dot dot dot".
However its quite good though. It can turn most of the text to speech pretty well. Unless for those who do not type in proper English. |
