Podcasting the Classics

I came across this article today about Ron Evry, a guy who is creating a volunteer organization of sorts to start podcasting classic public domain texts. It’s a cool idea, almost a Wikipedia of sorts for the spoken word audio crowd. Here’s the link to the article:

Dear Listener: Podcasting Classics

So much is converging right now in the world of digital audio. There’s this huge influx of new content and Apple will most certainly sell millions of their new iPod Nano this holiday season. As commute times grow longer and people have less time to read they’ll be turning more and more to spoken word audio for their education and entertainment. To quote a line from Almost Famous (one of my favorite movies!), “It’s all happening.”

Please keep letting us know what we can do to help you make your audio learning experience more enjoyable. Send me an e-mail anytime at jon@learnoutloud.com and give me feedback on the site or suggestions for new things that you would like to see.

And have a fantastic weekend!
