PimpMyNews.com

PimpMyNews was announced at Macworld Expo. It is a "talking social news application" for the iPhone and the iPod Touch.

PimpMyNews.com is setup to read the news from various web sites to you. The files are accessable from the iPhone and can be played on iPods and other MP3 players.

You log on and then select the sites you want to read. Once you set up an account, you can go to the mobile version of the site to listen with your iPhone or your iPod Touch.

It sounds like they are using a Mac with the Alex voice.

The site has over 200,000 stories online and adds more than 4000 per day.

I have been downloading my playlist/podcast from the site to my iTunes and then taking it with me on my regular iPod... it is great! I never have time to read the paper in the morning, and this keeps me up to speed on whats going on. Give it a try!
