NOW PLAYING ON YOUR CELL PHONE
Posted on November 17th, 2009 by Joy Schwabach
The free Lexy.com service can deliver short talks to any phone, even a landline, in the form of news updates, comedy bits, college or professional football highlights, science headlines, etc.
The talks are called “Lexycasts” and there are thousands of them. They run one to three minutes. We liked “60 Second Science,” from Scientific American Magazine, “Gadget Girl,” and “60-Second Getaways.” You can get text alerts when your favorite show updates.
Go to lexy.com and sign up for the programs you want. You’ll get a different call-in number for each show. Or you can listen in at the website.
