Listening to Twitter
Twitter is a popular micro-blogging site that easily demands too much of your attention for the simple reason that you have to read it. Now you can listen instead. TweetSpeak lets you give your friends the continuous partial attention they deserve without taking your eyes off of the work you should be doing.
Installation
TweetSpeak is a command line program written for the Mac OS X operating system. It uses the Mac's built in text to speech capability so it is not likely to work easily on other computers. (Prove me wrong.)
Click File:TweetSpeak.zip to download the program. The program is ready to run from the Mac's Darwin command line. A ReadMe file explains how to run a command line program if you've not yet used this capability of your computer.

TweetSpeak is highly customizable. Please share your customizations in this section.
