Textcast 1.0.2
About Textcast
Your daily commute just got more interesting. Textcast turns your favorite RSS and Atom feeds, web pages, and more into personal podcasts for your iPod or iPhone. Keep up with the world at your convenience.
Textcast uses Mac OS X Leopard’s ultra-high quality voice, Alex, to create podcasts from any text file. Simply add a news feed, import directly from Safari, or copy text into the application, and Textcast will automatically create spoken-word audio files and send them to iTunes for upload on your iPod or iPhone. Whether you have a dual-core iMac or an eight-way Mac Pro, Textcast uses the processing power to convert text into speech much faster than real-time reading.

- Rapid conversion of text to spoken-word audio files
- iTunes syncing
- Easy subscription to and conversion of news feeds
- Ability to import text from Safari
- Ability to import text or drag-and-drop feeds from NetNewsWire
