FeedSpeaker helps blind people experience the Internet by enabling them to do what most of us take for granted – instantly access the latest news stories around the world by navigating only with their voice. It combines state of the art open source speech recognition solutions with geocoded semantic data access from hundreds of real-time news sources around the Web. FeedSpeaker is the first of its kind and hopefully a glimpse of the future. It’s a browser-based mashup that requires no installation, doesn’t cost anything and is accessible from anywhere and anytime by people with visual disabilities and without them alike.

Additional info:

FeedSpeaker.com requires only the latest Flash Player plugin to run. Please make sure you’ve granted the app sufficient rights to access your microphone – and then that your microphone and speakers are turned on. Its a prototype so please pronounce words clearly and don’t get mad if it doesn’t understand something :) Have fun using it!
