The fast forward button will serve as that: skip the current audio and
move to the next. To take full advantage of the service, you need to
register and then configure your interest. It is a one time effort.

We are focusing on adopting new content and Chinese language has been
considered.

Good question. What do you expect to be read? The corrected spelling
or mis-spelled word?

Well, there are two cases:
1. True miss spelling: i.e. the spell as teh
2. Fake miss spelling: i.e. the sentence: THE offten misspell as TEH but not catch by computer.
 
Other interesting case like how computer handle the forgein name, i.e. Junle Wang or place name i.e. WuHan ?

Hi, Frank,
 
Please try this and press "listen":
 

I do not think the translation engine is so smart now, neither text-to-voice engine. Unless the engine fully understand the meaning of contents. I believe it is good enough to read whatever text it get.
 
It is good start to set up this website. The website looks simple, but little too simple. If it is 100% web based application, SEO is must have. 
 
From business point of view, it is not clear to me who is the target user?  Read regular news maybe not a good selling point, since you have to compete with so many news reporters. Apply this technology into a special field maybe more attractive for people who need this service.
 
good job

Joe:

Right now these mis-spelling are handled by the closest matches, but
we plan to customize voices for these, especially the foreign names.

Let's talk about this offline so we don't fill people's inbox. Here
is my email: Fran...@VoKnow.com

Talk to you soon.

Frank
