If you’d rather listen to spoken words than read written text, then you should definitely check out podcastmatic, a handy web service that converts blogs to podcasts.

There are several blogs that I like to visit frequently and check out the new content they published. Unfortunately, there are times when I would much rather sit back and listen than have to read the text all on my own. Thanks to podcastmatic.com, I don’t have to strain my weary eyes, I can listen to spoken words instead of reading.

You see, podcastmatic is a web service that does something very handy: its job is to convert a blog to a podcast. Just visit the website and enter a blog’s URL. FindMySoft’s URL will do just fine.



Once you hit the green Go! button, the application will analyze the blog’s RSS feed and use text-to-speech technology to turn each published article on the blog into a podcast.



You can play the podcasts in the browser window, or you can download and store the sound files on a portable device – which sounds good if you want to listen to something while commuting home for example. Furthermore, you can subscribe to the podcast in iTunes.
