Show HN: Turn any blog into a podcast using text-to-speech

This is my holiday project, so please let me know what I can improve. Is the copy clear enough? Does the service provide value? Can I increase the value for the user in any way?

Feel free to criticize :)

I haven't actually used it so I may be mistaken but I assume the finished podcast has one of those robotic like text to speech voices. At least for me, I can't imagine listening to any longish podcast in that voice.

Try it out. Was it better or worse than you expected? :-)

About the same. It's really cool and I can definitely see myself using it for longer form stuff.

Funny, I had a similar idea recently. I'd be happy to share some of my ideas on increasing value for users. If you're interested, shoot me an email at xmas_project@<my username>.org

The conversion was taking too long time due to bug. But please try again now!
