    RSS Feed Mixer Project 2007 - text2speech

    Since our 'Feed2Podcast' widgets are no longer working as thier domain server has been closed for unknown reasons, I have started to look for alternative tools and gadgets which would mix RSS Feeds to generate "text2speech podcast" or audio files online on weblogs.

    As of October 5th, I have test driven all of the following options at my home with much success, in lieu of ‘Feed2Postcast' widgets. I have embeded some of RSS feeds on RSS readers.
