Abstract

There is no easy way for users to consume their browser content such as tabs, reading lists, and bookmarks in audio form. In many situations, users may benefit from read-aloud features in the web browser, allowing them to listen to articles. However, currently, users need to manually access a web page and initiate the browser read aloud feature. This disclosure describes techniques, implemented with user permission, to automatically create a personalized audio playlist for a user based on the user's web browser content such as tabs, bookmarks, and/or reading lists. Per the techniques, browser content is analyzed to identify web pages that the user intends to read. Audio versions of the webpages are automatically generated and arranged into a playlist. The user is provided an interface enabling them to listen to the playlist, enabling automatic playback in audio form of articles that the user is interested in. The user can also select specific content, e.g., a set of browser tabs and request creation of a corresponding audio playlist.
