Preserving Voices For The Future

Fantastic work from friend Andy Mabbett on setting up this project. If anyone has any notable guest speakers at events coming up, perhaps you'd like to ask them to contribute.

Generations to come will be able to hear what celebrities and notable individuals actually sounded like, starting with Stephen Fry, thanks to Wikipedia’s new voice recording project. The Wikipedia Voice Intro Project (WikiVIP) aims to add the voice of celebrities, scientists, artists and other people of note from around the world to their Wikipedia biographies, providing 10 seconds or so of audio to enable current and future readers to know what they sounded like.
