Interview Video For sayhear.org

I have been meaning to post this video for a while, if only for the sake of posterity. Right before the election, myself and the folks at Gershoni whipped up SayHear. It was a blast to work on and we felt quite proud of the results. This whole project would not have been possible however without the technology and support of Ribbit. So when Ribbit asked me to talk about the project and how Ribbit’s technology helped make it a reality, I was more than happy to do so. Read On…

sayHear.org Launches

With 3 days left until the election, I am oh-so-proud to announce the launch of sayHear.org, a site intended to literally give voice to the voters of America. You participate by calling one of the numbers on the sayHear.org website based off of who you are voting for and leave a message explaining why you are. Your audio recording will then show up on the site for others to hear.

This site was a joint-collaboration between myself, Gershoni and Ribbit. Without Ribbit’s technology, there would be no way this could have been created – I cannot thank them enough for their time and generosity. In addition, working with the Gershoni crew was absolutely amazing and I am still amazing at how much we were able to accomplish in such little time.

Please, do take the time out to go to sayHear.org and leave a message. It will take less than a minute and in return you will help keep the political discussion going all the way until election day. You should also check out electionmyx.com for some really cool election 2008 video mashups. Big hat tip to Neil Voss for the great work on that site.
