Audio database

I should have written down this yesterday.

Englishmanaics.org's audio database may have some usefulness, even though short of making profits. If it can be utilized in English learning, with good software to support it, in conjunction with the textualized versions of those audio files, it will serve as some audio reference for English learners.

More detailed planning would be required. For now, what I am sure of is that the more extensive the data, the better as it is true for a dictionary.

So, let's keep going with the transcribing activities. Doing more audio files, like two a week instead of the current one-a-week system, would be a good idea as long as it doesn't put too much stress on the people involved.

Maybe, it would be a good idea to recruit one more drafter for an additional audio file. Interesting.
