How to listen the content of a website | create an audio book of a website





Do you know, you can force a website to speak the content and you can also create an audio book of a website in MP3. You can turn blog into a podcast. 
But you need to have moziall firefox for this. first of all install FoxVox addon from here
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxvox/
Then select the text you want to listen and press F9 or F12 
you can stoip the speech by Shift+F9 or Shift+F12


This addone works fine on windows Xp and linux but need some settings on Vista and 7.


READ THIS:


1) Windows Users: If you hear no speech, make sure your anti-virus or firewall is not blocking the visual basic scripts: speaknow.vbs, stopspeech.vbs, delmarkerfile.vbs. See version notes/history for details, if interested why.


2) The error saying Firefox cannot install an extension "because invalid file hash" is NOT a FoxVox or a Firefox bug. It is your cookie settings that are blocking the installer.
