Podcasting Project Gutenberg - LibriVox

Tuesday, October 11th, 2005

I’ve long been a fan of Project Gutenberg, and read many books that they’ve made available. With the advent of podcasting, it makes sense then to “acoustically liberate” these books. LibriVox is such an attempt. I think they need to automate the process a little more and let anyone contribute any chapter of any book (appealing to people’s personal tastes instead of waiting to find someone interested in the book du jour - reach the long tail). Next step: an addition to the iTunes directory?
