Papercast

Podcast of your favourite articles

Use case

Do you have dozens of tabs open in your browser, hoping to get to those articles some day? Save them to a free account on Instapaper and Papercast will create a personal podcast with those articles narrated. Now close those tabs and breathe freely!

More Information

  • High quality voice will narrate your articles to you
  • Listen at any speed your podcast player allows
  • Links are run through GoOse content extractor to only narrate the article itself
  • No ads

Running locally

Currently only supports MacOS X, since I use SpeechSynthesis.framework. Edit CFLAGS in both files under mactts/ to point at correct header path.

# go get
# go run *.go
