Automatically create Podcasts from your posts - How To?

 |
Sign up to Talkr or Odiogo. They offer an unique service: They allow you to automatically convert your text posts in to Audio podcasts and publish the feed. The generated MP3s are stored and served by these sites, so you don’t have to worry about bandwidth and server maintenance.

If you have ever tried the Text-to-Speech conversion programs in Windows/Mac, you know what I am talking about and need no explanation, if not read this please 
Other features:
Talkr has been around since 2005 (AFAIK), Odiogo is relatively a new service. There are even plugins to integrate these services seamlessly with your Wordpress blog: Odiogo plugin for Wordpress & Talkr Plugin for Wordpress. I am sure other blogging platforms can easily be supported with little or no modification.
Personally I won’t go down this path as I prefer to hear my voice in my Podcasts, but this surely is an excellent service for those who don’t want to do everything by their own.
[Update (June 10th, 2007: Fixed all the typos. Thanks Bob for pointing out.]
