YouTube Audio Preview & Martha Stewart comment

Last night I had two memorable discoveries on YouTube:

1. I was disturbed by Martha Stewart’s sick and twisted baby food costume video.

2. I noticed a new button under the commenting box labelled Audio Preview. Press it and your comment will be read back to you by a text-to-speech program. The audio conversion sounds a bit robotic and awkward but I go a kick out of it when I wrote the following comment on Martha “go back to prison” Stewart’s video (click on the image below for a video of the audio preview):

Based on a Twitter search for audio preview it looks like this has been around for about 24 hours.

  • The audio preview is a great thing for accessibility. also sometimes people maybe using very small screens and this makes it easier to review before submitting.
