Say It!

Say It! is a small, simplistic and fun widget which enables you to listen to the text that you write, by using a text-to-speech tool. You don't have to be experienced in software programs to be able to work with this app.
The interface of the gadget is represented by a small frame, shaped as a bubble speech balloon; you can move it to any position on the desktop, by dragging it with the mouse cursor.
All you have to do is write text and press the Enter key to activate the text-to-speech function. The context menu gives you the possibility of using the global Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete and Select All functions.
It is also possible to write a custom greeting note, disable the toolbar on mouse hovering, make the speech tool talk faster or slower, adjust the volume level, as well as navigate to previous inputted text. Hotkeys are available for some of these functions, and you can also make the widget check for updates automatically.
Say It! is very light on the system resources, using a minimal amount of CPU and memory. It has a good response time and works well, without causing the OS to hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. Less experienced users can quickly learn how to work with Say It!, thanks to its intuitive layout and overall simplicity.
