Have You Ever Wanted To Be A Talking Potato?

Posted at 7:54 pm under web 2.0

If your answer to that question is yes, then you’re in luck! With Spud Yourself! you can turn your image into a talking potato (or use one of the site’s pictures). By using the text-to-speech feature, English Language Learners can develop their language skills in a fun way through writing and listening. You can post the link to your talking potato on a teacher or student blog/website.

You can read this article describing how I use this kind of viral marketing gimmick with English Language Learners.
