Eglė Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) So, I had this idea... Why don't we let each other hear how we sound? I searched the forums and didn't find a similar thread. If there is one, just inform me. Here’s how is goes: 1. Record your voice with a recorder, a mic or a phone, or anything. 2. Tell your name (or a nickname if you want to stay private) plus anything you feel like. 3. If English is not you native language, say a few things in your mother tongue. 4. Upload the file somewhere on the Net. (I used mediafire.com) 5. Post a link here and... Voila! 6. Keep it more or less short / normal file size I start. This is my (low) voice... P.S. Those of you who cannot record, don’t worry. I might make a fool of myself by being the only one who posts. Ah, doesn’t really matter.
