> > contribution to Telugu people.

> > Here are some of the scenarios where this can be used:

> > 1. Stand alone application
> >     a.  User Installs provided Telugu text to speach engine (Let us call
> > it with code name andhra vaaNi ) application.
> >     b.  he copy pastes some text into provided text box
> >     c. He can click on a button which will start reading the text.
> >     d. he can choose between woman / man voice, he can increase/decrease
> > frequency and other options.

> > 2. Integration with blogs:
> >     a. a blog can include optional image/JS
> >     b. when clicked it will take us to another web site (andhra vaani .
> > org ? ) and starts reading the text to the user from the blog a.

> > lot more, but we need a working nice engine to achieve this.
