Imagine you don't have time to read someone's cool blog (like, say, The LA Report Daily Edition), or some other website with text. Instead of driving and reading (a taxing test of your multitasking skills), imagine you can just get the audio version of that same text and listen on the go on your iPod (Apple didn't pay for the iPod plug, but we always accept donations, Steve Jobs).
Such is the promise of ODIOGO, a service that could just be what's next in text. I assume Odiogo is a play on the word AUDIO and GO (yes, we are sharp folks here). Bloggers or other webmasters may find this tool very useful indeed, to turn text readers into audio listeners without having to do much extra work (add an Odiogo button to a posting and visitors can get an audio version of that post's text). More info at http://www.odiogo.com/ -- where you can read text like this description excerpt:
