I once made an addin for an IRC client where I used an Agent to read the incoming chat text for me. It was kinda neat, as I could just be sitting at my desk, and if i needed to get up and do something but didn't want to miss the conversation, i just hit a key, and the chat was read to me until I got back.
I don't use that irc client anymore, and haven't bothered to make one for my current client, but it was fun while it lasted. Used it quite frequently, actually.
