Now we see the TV, we listen to the radio, we read the newspaper and we read the web, but from now this will change... listen to your favorite websites on your mobileWebTalks is a feed reader that allows us to listen our favorite sites, as if it were a radio, or a podcast.
Their usage mode is as simple as opening the application, dictate the title of the web to listen (eg “Play Engadget”), or selecting it from our list of favorite websites, and the application will begin to dictate the latest posts published in this web.
How many times have you desired, for example, hear "New York Times" while driving, or listen on your headphones "Engadget" way at the University, or just listen to your Google Reader's subscriptions while travelling by metro or by bus?
WebTalks uses advanced technology that enables synchronization with "Google Reader". Thus, you can listen to your Google Reader subscriptions, and will be marking as read the posts that you are listening. The application also implements offline mode so that the webs are loaded when there is mobile coverage, and you can enjoy them even when travelling by Metro.
The app dictates the text in a website in the appropriate language while you read along. Practice your listening and reading at the same time. For example, you can brush up on your Spanish by having the app read the “El País” to you.
The application can be used with the headset button for your convenience:
- Single click: Pause/Play
- Double click: Next post

Lasse mir jeden Morgen die News von diversen RSS-Feeds die ich mit Google-Reader konfiguriert habe, vorlesen. Diverse Sprachen werden dabei problemlos unterstützt (D, E, F, PT).
Entwickler hat auf meinen Hinweis die Sortierfunktion alt/neu hinzugefügt.
Einfache Konfiguration.
Ganz vereinzelt mal ein Hänger, geht dann aber wieder weiter.
Toll! Investition lohnt sich.
