Welcome to Smuggle Me

In one of the blogs that I’ve been reading in the healthcare industry they talked about a nice set of technology they are using to convert their blog into audio files. Essentially the written text becomes a podcast. Pretty cool technology I’d say. Here’s a description of a couple of the technologies they’re using:

1. Talkr files - for each full post (not comments yet) there is an mp3 audio file. This is generated automatically using Talkr (www.talkr.com). Click on the ‘Listen to this article’ link at the end of each post.
2. feed2podcast files - this produces a streaming audio file of the whole blog, in reverse chronological order. This is generated automatically using feed2podcast (www.feed2podcast.com).
