Creativity | 2011. 10. 2. 09:04 | Posted by 스마트 안전보건

One of Google Chrome's extensions, Speakit!, is a great web application that read a web page for you. All you have to do is to install it (Speakit!) from Google's Web Store, to select some paragraphs to be read, and then to click the 'Speakit!' app.

Usage:
- First select the text you want it to read.
- Then click the icon to start listening.
- When it is ready to read, the number of sentences is shown on the icon.
- To stop listening at any time click pause

Note
- After installation may SpeakIt may need to restart Chrome so to function correctly
