Collaborative audio books
About a week and a half ago I stumbled onto AKMA’s brilliant idea to create an audio-book version of Lawrence Lessig’s new book ‘Free Culture’. Bloggers quickly signed up to the collaborative by claiming chapters to read in the posting’s comments. I arrived a bit late to the party, so I didn’t get to read a chapter, although there is plenty of room for alternative voices and reads, but that’s for later. I’m a big believer in audio books and ‘read’ this way frequently. I just finished Dan Brown’s ‘The DaVinci Code’ in about 2 week’s time of travelling to my morning radio show whilst listeing in the car. I use my iPod and the iTrip, a snap-on fm-transmitter, so I can enjoy the reading on my car’s stereo. It’s also much safer. I listen to lots of stuff on my iPod besides music and audio books. There are interviews and archives of old radio shows. There’s even an audio bible. [Adam Curry’s Weblog]
