Twitter Radio

Video killed the radio star, but now it seems radio's been resurrected in the form of 'The Social Radio'.

The social radio is a brand new app available for android and iphone that links to your twitter account and will read out your updates from your twitter feed in a robotic voice (male or female, depending on your choice) . This means you can now stay informed on all the latest news in situations that, before now, made it impossible to sneak a glance at your smartphone. You can now stick on a pair of headphones, walk down a busy street and not have to bump into everyone as a voice reads out your timeline, trending topics and search results. As well as being able to drive your car, do the dishes or mow the lawn you'll be safe in the knowledge that you're staying in the know, thanks to this new audio advancement.

The app also allows you to listen to your music at the same time and can translate foreign tweets into english. The potential for this app makes it a must have for anyone wanting to stay abreast in the field of social media.

On a side note however, you may be tempted to reevalutate who you're following, you don't want to be in a meeting when suddenly the boss's big speech is interrupted by a voice announcing to the room "I love shopping! tweets Paris Hilton". Awkward!
