Voice meme

[stephbg]

I am attempting to do this vocal recording meme, but at time of writing have not yet figured out how to upload the sound file. Embedding is all very well but I need somewhere to put the thing. I fail at technology. When I do figure it out, I'll put it here. If it takes me six months to figure it out I may be forced to add a time-travelling link from a new post. Oh the shame.

ED: Upload attempt 1 (Windows media .wma file format): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18741597/ljvoicememe.wma



Having done the recording it's a bit quiet, but I shall resist the temptation to do it again.

These are the instructions for what I was meant to be saying:

Your name and/or username
Where you're from
The following words: Aunt, Roof, Route, Wash, Oil, Theater, Iron, Salmon, Caramel, Fire, Water, Sure, Data, Ruin, Crayon, Toilet, New Orleans, Pecan, Both, Again, Probably, Spitting Image, Alabama, Lawyer, Coupon, Mayonnaise, Syrup, Pajamas, Caught, Orange, Coffee, direction, naturally, aluminium and herbs
What is it called when you throw toilet paper on a house?
What is the bubbly carbonated drink called?
What do you call gym shoes?
What do you say to address a group of people?
What do you call the kind of spider that has an oval-shaped body and extremely long legs?
What do you call your grandparents?
What do you call the wheeled contraption in which you carry groceries at the supermarket?
What do you call it when rain falls while the sun is shining?
What is the thing you change the TV channel with?

So I'm not the only one who can't figure how the bloody hell to upload the bugger! Perhaps Belinda will let us know how she did it.

Try 'Dropbox' (www.dropbox.com). Its main use is sharing files between computers - once installed, there's a magic folder, and anything you put in that folder gets automatically copied and synchronised to the matching folder on every other computer you have dropbox installed on, in the background, with every version of every file archived on the dropbox server, so you can revert back to any version you want.

Inside that dropbox folder is another called 'public' - any file you put in there is accessible on the web, by anyone (from dropbox's web servers, not your PC). Right-clicking on the file on your desktop copies the URL of that file into the clipboard, and you can paste it into an LJ entry, facebook comment, etc.
