Sometimes I see a lengthy text article that I tell myself I'll bookmark and read later, but I know I'm never going to read it. I much prefer audiobooks and podcasts. So I automated scraping the text from the article, piping it through text-to-speech, turning it into an MP3, and moving it to my phone so it shows up in my audiobook library. Next step is to make it an RSS feed so I can treat it like a podcast.
