You can make your browser talk to you using the new awesome speech-api spec, simple as:

function talkToMe () {
    var msg = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance();
    msg.lang = 'en';
    msg.rate = 2;
    msg.text = 'We are an awesome team';
    window.speechSynthesis.speak(msg);
}

Call this javascript function and you will start listening to your browser (must be an updated browser).
