Feasible Impossibilities speak up

I am having serious blog envy!

Robert Hall has been showcasing speech synthesis hooked to Flash for a while on his Flash site, but now he has put together a nice little application for his regular weblog.

You can now hear parts of his weblog entries via Flash.

Still miss some in depth information about how he has done it. Would have been nice to get to look into the gut of the sound beast ;-)

[Update]
Ok, found his presentation of the project at FlashForward 2001 in NYC: Ideas To Realities, Threads To Objects. Found the link thanks to Google and FFNYC Links

Simplistic IBM?

"Simplifying Tasks" is a cool poster about ease of use and simplifying tasks, its just too bad that the people that made their web pages obviously haven't understood the concept.

IBM - Ease of Use - Simplifying Tasks

Check out the "easy" ordering "link" they are using :-D
