More About Listen
Listen is a text to speech chrome extension for hearing the text on any website. At the click of a button, the website your using's text is generated and played through the tts-api. Another feature the Listen app has is the ability to read pdf pages (beta). This feature is in beta and somewhat delicate for production, so try not to read pdf websites more than 5-10 pages long. For developers reading this, the source code is hosted on Github (url below). Enjoy...
