Oklahoma City, OK (PRWEB) December 12, 2007 -- Web 2.0 startup
PimpMyNews today announced the world's first "talking social news
site" at http://www.PimpMyNews.com The free "new media" service
that lets anyone with Internet access or an MP3 player listen to
thousands of breaking text news and blog stories that they would
otherwise have to read.
Throughout the day, the site's proprietary software scours the
Internet for text stories matching each user's preferences. The
site then converts text content to near-human sounding audio in
real time, using text-to-speech technology similar to technology
used in talking GPS navigation systems.
During the sign up process, users select their favorite topics
from hundreds of text-based news and blog publishers to create a
"personalized talking newspaper." For deep personalization, users
can choose content from fifty-seven unique categories, including
Technology, Entertainment, Sports, Politics, Colleges, Business
and more.
Users with iPods, iPhones, Zunes and other MP3 players
automatically receive fresh content matching their preferences
every morning for listening on-the-go, whenever and wherever they
desire -- allowing users to stay current on their favorite news
and blogs without being at a computer. The company believes this
feature will appeal to people with active lifestyles and
commuters.
The site also includes rich social media tools for users to rate,
share and participate in the distribution of news and blog
stories. With a single click, users can email audio versions of
stories to friends, or post them to Facebook, Twitter, Digg,
Del.icio.us, StumbleUpon, Reddit, Mixx, and other social sites.
"The idea grew out of a need that a group of friends had, which
we believe millions share. We needed a way to stay current on
the news and blogs we care about and a way to share interesting
stories with the world with minimal effort. PimpMyNews puts
consumers in control and lets them listen to breaking text news
on their terms. Publishers of text news and blogs now also have
the ability to augment their reader base with listeners," said
PimpMyNews Co-Founder John Atkinson.
