Emoticarolers

Just seen this fun application in one of my RSS feeds and I thought I’d share it with you all, the voice quality is a bit robotic on some of the emoticarolers as you might expect with text to speech conversion software, but hey this is the festive period and I thought it was a bit of fun if you put aside the tech behind it for a moment.

You pick 4 carolers from the list, chose your favourite carol. You can even make up your own lyrics type each word into the box underneath, when you’ve done just hit “Preview and Send”. It takes a few seconds to compose the song, then the door opens and the 4 carolers will start singing the song you have chosen and any customised lyrics.

You then have a choice to send the carol via Yahoo Messenger, email it to a friend, share and embed it (I assume this means you can embed it into your own site to greet/annoy your visitors), or you can download it as an MP3.
