ReadSpeaker Speech-Enables Corriere Website and iPhone App

HUIS TER HEIDE, The Netherlands, April 12, 2010--     VoiceCorp is pleased to announce that Corriere della Sera, the leading
Italian newspaper, has recently implemented ReadSpeaker Enterprise, a
web-based speech-enabling application to enhance the Corriere website reader
experience and increase the accessibility of Corriere web content for
everyone. This service allows Corriere website visitors to listen to articles
by clicking the "listen" button at the top of each article, without the need
for downloading and installing additional programs. To even further enhance
the reader experience, Corriere website visitors can also choose to activate
embedded highlighting, which enables them to see synchronized highlighting of
the text that is being read, on a word by word and/or sentence basis.

    In addition to the website, Corriere has also speech-enabled their iPhone
app with the ReadSpeaker audioMob application. By simply clicking on the
listen button (headphones icon), which is an integral part of the iPhone app,
it will automatically start reading the text.

    This new feature for the Corriere website will allow those otherwise
incapable of reading online content the ease of listening to Corriere
articles. For people that are on the go, that don't have enough time to read,
or prefer to listen to an article rather than reading it, the iPhone app
listen function is a new, useful way to access information. It overcomes the
problem of reading from a small screen.

    VoiceCorp's co-founder Roy Lindemann says: "VoiceCorp is very pleased to
add speech functionality to Corriere's website and iPhone app. By making
Corriere's website and iPhone app talk, we are providing a new and
easy-to-use channel for Corrriere users to access information."
