Left the tab open - nice little easter egg you have there :)

window.setTimeout(function(){return i("i love you")},9E5);

feature request: make it usable via a URL http://lalo.li/?text=hello should playback "hello"

on my internal to-do list

There isn't really so much functionality added over the grounded work http://syntensity.com/static/espeak.html , is there? (Except some nicer web interface.)

it is standing on the shoulders of giants (that would be kripkens (the emscripten guy) shoulders).

difference: shareability, interface, entertainment value

I've been having too much fun with this at work already, and It's been open for 3 minutes. I gotta say I do very much enjoy the simple and straightforward interface.

very cool!

but it spams my webhistory with every keystroke i think, renders my back button useless.

you are right

  history.replaceState()

would be a better choice than the

  history.pushState()

i'm using. livecoding right now.

[Update: fixed (and deployed)]

sweet :) window.setTimeout((()->saySo('i love you')),10006015)

How?
