Speech Heads, I know we don’t usually blog here on Fridays, but I just caught wind of a text-to-speech flash greeting card generator even weirder than that vaguely horrifying thing that Nuance put together for Christmas:

The CareerBuilder Anonymous Tip Builder

The builder is Careerbuilder.com’s of a sick joke. It allows users the ability to “anonymously” send TTS tips to coworkers without them knowing who sent it. You can say things like, “Please do something about the stench the emanates from the billowy folds in your shirt,” or “Be sure to refill the coffee pot when you finish it off, you sower of human misery,” and they will never be the wiser about who sent it.

Your personalized message is delivered by one of four terror-inspiring avatars framed in office tableaus. Choose from this nipple-shirt guy you see featured here, or an alligator in a suit, or a floating zombie business woman, or a strange salesman playing the piano with his feet. From that selection, you’ll be whisked away to another menu where you can input whatever message you like. You can pick from three male voices or three female voices.

Go on. Try it HERE!

I’ve already sent one to my brother, Adam B., advising him that if he continues to read from my journal unknown paid assailants may very well render him limb-from-limb.

As for the app itself, we aren’t sure what speech provider powers the underlying capabilities of this little TTS dandy, but you better bet we’re working overtime to figure it out.

In the meanwhile, enjoy THIS little tip we’ve put together for you!
