Audiobooks and Podcasts

An Audiobook is a recording of the content of book/novel in a tape,cd, mp3 format etc. Podcasts have a similar function, but podcasts is similar to a serie and an audiobook is to a movie. They can be found through websites, free or by pay.

Audiobooks and podcasts are cool because they are read aloud clearly, with good quality. Now we can read books while driving, running or whateverit is that we are doing, we don't have to hold the book with our hands , we can be cooking while reading at the same time. However I found the purchase plans unappealing, simply because I only listen to certain audiobooks and podcasts that are free. The samples I have gathered below are some of my favourites, feel free to check them out.

Online generators

I found most online generators very easy to use. My favourite ones are those which moves, the names on lights is one of them. I think this is a really cool way to waste time on the internet, its fun, creative and productive. :)

I got my name in lights with notcelebrity.co.uk
