BuzzVoice Now Available for Android
Tuesday, August 31, 2010 at 11:26AM
Last week we mentioned the pending release of the Android version of popular iPhone app BuzzVoice. It's finally here, and just waiting to read you your favorite news articles in a soothing computerized voice.
BuzzVoice is a different take on a traditional RSS reader. Maybe a better way to put it is that it takes the word "reader" literally in that it will actually read articles from many popular RSS feeds to you via synthesized voice. The annoyance level of the computerized vocalizations is extremely subjective based on your tolerance. I, personally, do not find them to be that bad to listen to. However, you may want to leverage the Market's 24 hour return policy if you can't handle them.
Once you download the app ($4.99) and create an account, you're basically ready to go. You select a topic and the grabs the latest articles to read to you. You can optionally sign up for their pro account which provides a number of additional features at $3.99/month.
I plan on posting a full review of this app once I've had a few days of trying it out, so be on the lookout for it. If you've downloaded it and have some feedback, feel free to post it in the comments section below. In the mean time, for more information about BuzzVoice, feel free to visit their website here.
