<p> I was introduced to a new site called <a href="http://www.readthewords.com">Readthewords.com</a>.   It allows you to upload a word or pdf file and then converts the text into audio.  It can be downloaded in MP3 format for podcasting or just listening on a computer.  Probably some practical uses can be found for ESL and lower performing reading students.    It does require the creation of a FREE account.  </p>
