You really summed up my site and its value to students, teachers and busy people. You might be interested in our podcast features. Each member gets a personal podcast URL. We have been doing research around using an account for a whole class to share and also for students to share with each other. We also have the ability to easily add your recordings to your blog or website using Badges. This way you could record a file and then share it on the web page for your class. Thanks again for the great post Mark McKay Designer/Developer of SpokenText.net Great post Samuel!

I will see if I can get that to you. Also, a nice feature of GhostReader is you can set a hotkey and have GhostReader read text in almost every document or the Web. You just put your cursor over the text and hit the hotkey and it reads it. Cool. I have a video I made of a classroom of older students making a podcast using GhostReader.

That is a right on idea about how AAC users can create podcasts. I definitely want to get the GhostReader. I will download the demo to check it out! Thanks for the idea. Are there any examples of that on the web to check out? I would love to share that next week in a presentation. Mark. That is a right on idea about how AAC users can create podcasts.

I have my non-verbal kids use it to create podcasts. I even take it one step further and use picture symbols in OverlayMaker, send text to Ghostreader that converts it to MP3 files which are used to create podcasts. Fun stuff!!!
