Rich and I have been tinkering away in this space on and off for a few months now and realized there's loads of interesting narrations online but no easy way to find them all. So here we are... We'll be adding more over the next few weeks, especially since some of the narrations are serialized. Feel free to signup and add your own content. @erictwillis thanks for the hunt 😎

Who's narrating this stuff? Where is the content coming from? Do you take requests on what to narrate? Thanks!

@joshuapinter it's crowd sourced by people just like you =) If you want to starting recording your own narrations and upload them - just create an account and I'll approve you straight away.

@alangarrec Man, that's very cool. I've been using Pocket's audio transcription a lot but that robotic voice gets very, very taxing on the ears. This would be great for the seeing impaired as well. To have most popular articles narrated semi-professionally...

Listening to my first article. There's much potential with this product. I could easily rhyme off a list of features that you likely already on your radar. But my first suggestion would be fix the link on your "enjoy listing to this article?" modal to not take me away from the article I'm listening to.

Thanks for the feedback @drelabre, yes you're right we've got a long list of things to do 😕, and that sounds like something we should prioritize. Hope it didn't ruin the listening experience too much for you.

@alangarrec I think I found a bug, then. Wish I could report it in a not as public forum. It's says 'access denied' when I click 'Upload' https://www.evernote.com/l/AJI7m...

@karnajani oh don't worry that's what PH is for. You can actually send us an email via the feedback link (sorry if that wasn't clear) or reply to the email I just sent you. At the moment we're manually checking new accounts and then approving them for upload privileges, but because I'm an idiot I replied to you before changing your status - you were ⚡ fast !!! But your account is now approved, so welcome aboard, we look forward to seeing what you upload 😃

Reminds me of Umamo App (RIP, since its Dropbox acquisition). There was so much more to accomplish in this space. Looking forward to seeing Narrated take it further.

Thanks @ryanmac ! Yeah we'll see how things play out. We're hoping as more users like @msitver above upload their own narrations we'll start getting a bit of variety on there.
