Reading is so 20th Century. We here at Computer Wizard Guru Word Of The Digital Future Now Plus Magazine
have just tried out a beta version of a new set of computer voices that will soon be coming to
an online store near you. And it's a doozy! The Compubabble package allows you to customize
your computer listening experience and upgrade it to the twenty-first
century.
The unique and natural voices of Compubabble come as a set of four. Pick one to correspond to the site you are viewing:
1) Canary.
This singing voice is ideal for surfing lyric sites or for transcripts of
operas or musical extravaganzas. Listen in wonder as Canary sings the words of any
musical script you view. (The fact the tune always sounds like
Wayne Newton's hit Danke Schoen will seem normal after a while.) Also useful for poetry and those doom and gloom sites you used to hate.
2) Catcall
(also called The Heckler). When you're viewing live sporting event
feeds, film reviews, movie articles, humor publications, transcripts or speeches, this voice also adds interesting sound
effects, trash talk and rude phrases amongst page content. Pick from Boston, Bronx and The Knights Who Say "Ni!" accents. Install on your GPS unit to liven up long drives.
3) Yakkety-yak.
If you find reading gossip pages, lengthy business reports or IT
articles irritating and tiresome, try having this voice read them to you.
This fast-talking son-of-a-gun doesn't bother distinguishing between vowels and consonants, and doesn't stop at
periods. A truly breathless experience. Perfect for shortening a 15
minute read to under 3. Sure to be a favorite of speed readers and those
who just don't like punctuation. It's about time!
4) Lovey-dovey. Listen to your favorite
Harlequin e-Books or sexy sites with this sultry voice and compound
your experience. If you need to pause the reading in order to freshen up your mocha java, it will provide a background of heavy breathing, groans
and delightful squeals until you choose to continue. Also adds
interesting verve to lengthy scientific research studies.
Available in male, female and androgynous characterizations.
Update: For an even more interesting listen, there is a 'revolve' setting where every new sentence is read by a different voice. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI thought you'd be more of a Canary person :)
DeleteYes, kind of a canary person too, but that didn't make me laugh as much :)
