LibrivoxLibriVox is a cross-cultural, multi-lingual, geographically dispersed project; you could almost call us the United Nations of volunteer-based free public domain audio literature projects. So in order to celebrate United Nations Day (Oct 24), we just released the:
Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Read in 21 languages including Korean, Afrikaans, and Waloon.
And Boing Boing likes it!

After more than a year of LibriVoxing and articles in lots of fancy newspapers in other countries, and interviews and stories on many radio stations, my hometown newspaper decided to do a story on LibriVox! Unfortunately, the Gazette decided not to put the article online, but the writer put it up on his own site. Here tis:
LibriVox and the Power of Distributed Communities.
Nice article, by the same writer who did the NY Times piece a while back (you may recognize some sentences). Juicy quote:
LibriVox’s success is a study in how blogs and other collaborative Internet technologies are enabling large groups of people from all over the world to come together and build not just a community but also something tangible, a product or service.
