Do you like books? Do you like books about the voice industry even more?

News #2

Google starts rolling out video ads on YouTube

In other news, Forbes.com reported that YouTube founder Chad Hurley said his site would soon begin running video ads from Google and will share some of the earnings with the content's creators. SDA Asia Magazine also noted that this move by Google will reflect a significant change for YouTube, as pre-rolling advertisements before video clips may not go over well with their users.

News #3

To wrap up, LiveScience.com reports that a 100 and 50 million year old Stegosaurus fossil has been discovered in Europe, Portugal to be exact, marking the first time the famous plated dinosaur has been found outside of North America. The find supports a widely accepted idea that the two continents were once connected by a series of temporary land bridges which surfaced when sea levels dipped, allowing dinosaurs to cross.

Lora,

You mentioned Alkalol for breaking up film and mucus so one doesn't have to clear the throat. Is this stuff gargled, sprayed, what?

Thanks!

Hi Matthew,
Alkalol is multi-purpose. You can gargle it for your throat - heck you can spray it up your nose and clear your sinuses. I should be their spokesperson (hmm, as far as voices.com is concerned, I think I am:)
