Your Blog is Talking

First official vendor speed date post here... The vendor is Odiogo.  They provide a service that automatically creates podcasts from text on blogs or other sites.  I've posted previously on the fact podcasts are here to stay as part of the marketing mix so this technology seems like a super easy way to leverage existing web content to tap into the podcast crowd.  Odiogo has a nice demo which provides an overview of how their service works.  Prior to this post I've not tried the service myself, but am intrigued enough to explore a little more.  The automated voice is of course a little stilted and awkward, but honestly not terrible as automated voice bots go.  They look to be easily compatible with all the major blog platforms and actually offer the service for free to bloggers.  Ads (sold by Odiogo) are inserted into each podcast, but they do offer a revenue share model for bloggers at a certain traffic level.  If you have web content that you think might transition well to podcasts, certainly worth checking out Odiogo.
