Anchor Just Made Podcasting That Much Easier for WordPress Bloggers

Introverts rejoice! Anchor just announced a pretty substantial new feature for WordPress bloggers that may be wanting to jump into podcasting but aren’t exactly the loquacious type. If you’ve got a WordPress blog, then you’ve got a podcast. It remains to be seen how accurate the text to speak audio will actually sound, but this does provide a pretty substantial boost for bloggers. Even if you are totally fine with speaking and promoting yourself, podcasting can take a lot of time to plan topics, schedule guests, record, edit etc. With this new feature from Anchor though you can take your stream of consciousness blog and turn it into a quick podcast without having to even buy a mic. Again, the devils in the details so this new feature will be shelved pretty quickly if the text to speak is inaccurate or overly robotic sounding, but if this goes smoothly it could be a big tool for bloggers.
