Nice, though I thought the fact you had to say message was a bit redundant.

Good job! It incorporates several uses of readily available technology to get the job done. I wonder if there’s a way you can PUSH Google voice messages rather than fetch every minute or so.

excellent hack. This is great and really opens up the opportunities of TTS applications.

@Skitchin: I’m sure you could program that out if you wanted, or change the trigger word. It’s python for cryin out loud. But if you only have one google voice account, it might help to have a trigger word so not *every* voicemail gets piped to the screen…
