Online Kindness: Volunteer to Record Chapters of Books for LibriVox

Librivox is an amazing website that I have been watching for a number of years now, and it helped me out enormously in those awful required Art classes I took while at UBC. Now the site is far more interesting to me as I have some time to read what I wish, and because I find listening to audiobooks, and switching to reading every now and then to be the most efficient way for me to digest a non-technical book.

Librivox is basically just a repository of free audiobooks that were made for free by volunteer netizens like you and I. All you need is a computer with some recording software which is ubiquitous at this point, in fact the iPhone Voice Memo app (which is also available for the iPod Touch) is a great way to do this from the comfort of your favorite chair and couch.

Remember not to be an dick! OK please.
