Talkr

It's not April Fool's is it?
Damn, I didn't think so.

Talkr provides a service that allows you to listen to your favorite text-only news sources rather than read them. If you can point us to an RSS feed (a machine-readable version of your favorite blog or news source) we will convert that feed from text to speech. Talkr can also provide you with a podcast of your favorite news sources.

I want the OPPOSITE service dammit. I want a service I can dictate to and it returns me impeccable text... for blogging of course... :p

At least the logo isn't pink and powder blue. Let the deluge of product/service names ending in "-ckr" begin!

Flickr is the new iMac! The new eCommerce even!

Someone take this coffee away from me.

dude, no kidding! I don't know about you... but if I hear another client say "and I'd like to let users share photos like, you know, flickr.com" one more time... i'm gonna, well, do something.


James, I don't know you but I suspect your prospects will be vastly improved if you change your name to "Walkr". Would you object to Yahoo! (or the like) buying your ass for $1.5 million in a cash and equity deal? You know its going to happen sooner or later, you might as well precipitate it on your terms.

(Kidding, of course...of course.)
