site pal
i was just served a banner promoting a service called site pal. it's a flash-based feature that allows you to insert a speaking avatar onto your site - but it's their demos that are freaking me out!! you can enter in whatever text you want to and their demo avatar will speak it out loud, with corresponding mouth movement (i assume they filter vulgarity, but i - believe it or not - didn't test it out). you can even choose languages and accents. creepy, but kinda cool.
