PlayText essentially works in a simple way (the way we like it on this Website). You dial a toll-free number, key in a pre-determined code, press any number on your telephone instrument between 1-9 & soon, you will hear a podcast on any of the articles from that Blog or Website.
According to the guy who designed this service, Shan Ramanean, PlayText can be of great use to people who are without Data/Internet connection & people who are in the remotest parts of the world. Any one who is also visually challenged can listen to articles on Website by dialing in a toll free number & then pressing a particular number for the article.
Here's how it actually works:
Just call +1-888-666-4013 (Toll Free number)
Enter the allotted number to listen to a site (See below for list of allotted numbers)
Press any number from 1 to 9 to listen to any article
Once the article has been podcasted, you can go back to the main menu or go to site menu or hangup.
There are some other features to PlayText but I will you to discover those.
Shan is a part-time Apps developer & has a few to his name. Unfortunately, we tried calling up the toll-free number from various numbers but all that we got was - This number does not exist. Shan, hope you are listening?
