Voice Post



Ha! That auto-transcription isn't perfect of course, but it's reasonable. Corrections:
“Inspired by Jadie Hornerjdhorner -- Hi Josh -- I just wanted to say hello to everybody & try out this voice posting thing, now that there is a Canada Telphone number. Strangely, the Canada Telphone number is not Toronto, it's actually several km's away in, sort of N S Ontario. I just wanna complain about the heat cos ["cos" ? I can take the 'N' for Northern, but that's a bit much. --Cam] it's really hot & sticky & smoggy & muggy & all those words here in Toronto. And the love of my life is trapped on the 401 because of a huge accident. Those of you who like traffic maps, visit-- just Google, 401 traffic or Toronto traffic, & you can see all the red lines that he's enjoying. I'm just sitting here eating pickles & cheese. And this is my 1st phone post ever, & it's uhh kind of anticlimactic. Yeah, so that works.”

Yay! I will get to hear what you sound like. :-)

I am sitting in the airport with no headphones, or I'd listen now. :-\

Just as long as he's not making another movie.

He really must stop doing that.

In transcription, it's actually desired that the "uhms and uhhs" be left out of the transcription. At least where I work, that's denoted with a double-dash. Long pauses actually aren't notated. But I put "cos" as, "'cause." just FYI. :)

Wow, the auto-transcribe is pretty good, especially since it is working with lower-quality phone audio and not crystal-clear content. Amazing what they can do these days...
