Text to speech

Thank you for your participation in our text-to-speech research last year. We have a publication about the results of the pilot study we ran which you can access at http://www.research.att.com/techdocs/TD_100505.pdf ,
and a blog post about all the text-to-speech experiments we are running at
http://networkingexchangeblog.att.com/enterprise-business/open-the-pod-bay-doors-hal/.

Our current experiment involves a comparative analysis of more than 10 text-to-speech engines, including the ones most commonly used in screen readers. The experiment can be found at

The experiment pages have been tested for JAWS compatibility. Also, the current experiment involves only 60 items (rather than 180), so can be completed in about 1/2 hour.

You are welcome to provide my contact information in case people have questions, suggestions or complaints. It is:
