Speechification improved (again)!

I've been meaning to say for a while that we've improved Speechification again. New contributor James Bridle has cleverly embedded a player in every entry so you listen to shows with ease right there on the page. You'll probably still want to subscribe to the podcast, which is getting pretty popular now. The other thing I'd like you to to do is make sure you let us know what you think of Speechification and suggest good speech radio programmes you think we should be featuring.

A Speechification player you can embed

Hey. Look over there! In the right-hand nav. Yes, it's a Speechification player. You can now listen to top speech radio picks from the Speechification crew right here at Bowblog.com. The player is a clever blend of RSS and Yahoo Pipes or something. We got the idea from Giles who did it first and Roo made ours. The player is a thing of beauty (that's Yahoo's handiwork) and you can just click on that little 'Y' icon and copy the code to paste into your own blog (you might need to adjust the width of the embed but that's easy and the player is very forgiving: it'll squeeze into really narrow places). Of course, you can also listen by subscribing to the podcast or just visit the web site.

Hey. You should get over to Speechification. We upgraded (actually, Roo upgraded). So we now have comments, links in the navbar, better programme credits. Oh, and comments. Did I mention comments? So now you can comment. Nip over and leave a comment.
