Additional comments by developer Daden Limited:
Journalists at the Grimsby Telegraph upload Kate with the latest news through a simple web interface designed by Daden. This lets them preview the next news bulletin before putting it live – enabling them to check pronunciation and phrasing. David Burden, Daden's Managing Director said “Grimsby Telegraph are proactive in their use of technology and were clear with what they wanted to achieve. As a virtual newsreader Kate provides another way for people to interact with their online edition” The technology behind Kate could also be used to dynamically capture the news from RSS feeds, engage in dialogue about the news stories being read or even drive a 3D newsreader in a virtual world such as Second Life.
