"Can you imagine listening to a radio station that converts the text from your social networks into audio, and mixes it with your favorite music from any mobile device? Well you can stop imagining: that's exactly what The Social Radio does. This application, developed by the Argentinean Roberto Gluck promises to save you time with their “socio – musical” experience.
The Social Radio also automatically detects the language in which the tweet is written. At the moment it does this in seven different languages ??(Spanish, English, French, Portuguese, Russian, German and Italian), and they promise to expand the range of supported languages to reach more ears soon. Besides, thanks to its improved text engine used to interpret tweets, you can read the full abbreviations and shortened links, and describe the emoticons and other content.
The tool is ready for use and though it does require further development, it also affords new possibilities that haven’t been resolved until now using a less creative and intuitive designs. On the one hand, it introduces a new way of consuming social networks that do not require visual attention and also facilitates access to social networks for the blind or otherwise disabled who can take receipt of social media content using the application.
In just two months, while still in beta trials, the tool captured 20,000 users worldwide, and, according to Gluck, the figure “is growing rapidly”. To this achievement we must add the $300,000 in investment capital raised through angel investors, numerous positive reviews in international media, and several awards.
Beyond this project, this young man shows a proven track record as a technological entrepreneur developing commercial software applications. At only 22 years of age, Roberto lead a team of software architects for a large Argentinean government project, and at age 24 he founded his first company, CreationFlow, a start-up for creative industries."
