I stumbled across this great little free online service for converting your RSS feeds into MP3 files for podcasting goodness. Talkr might not have a trendy logo or backing from Yahoo! but they got themselves an r on the end of the name and a pretty neat little service to boot.

All you have to do is set up a free account then register as a ‘partner’ and add your RSS feed URL. They trot off and grab the feed and you can slap a nifty little link into your page template which links to your ‘Talkr-ed’ mp3.

The tricky part wasn’t getting it to work so much as temporarily defaulting Textpatterns RSS feed to 999 articles so that Talkr could provide audio for even my oldest posts (Sorry if you did an update with your RSS readers during the process!).

So, let me know what you think, click on the Listen to this post link below any artcile title to give it a whirl.
