Create MP3's from text with vozMe
Who wants to read all their email when they can listen to it instead?vozMe is web tool that turns text into an mp3 file that you can listen to immediately online or download onto your hard drive to listen to later. The tool works for English, as well as Spanish and Italian text and the interface is simple in design with just a box to type or paste text, and a button to create an mp3. vozMe also has tools available for webmasters who want to offer audio versions of posts directly on their websites.

For other text to speech options check out VocalFruits, Pediaphon, and SpokenText.
