Browser Extensions: NaturalReader vs. Kurzweil Read the Web

Web Browser Extensions

With a text-to-speech browser add-on, you can read text in any web page. Activate the tool, select text on screen, and click a button (or not - depends on the add-on), and have the text read out loud. The NaturalReader Chrome extension is free to everyone, and Kurzweil Read The Web is available to students who have a Kurzweil 3000 account. Choose one of these links to add an extension to Google Chrome (or Firefox, in Kurzweil's case).
