The Idea: Some of us, I'm sure, have the capability to digitally record ourselves. How cool would it be if we had an archive of DUers' voices? :bounce:

What say you?

4. So...what if I did a Richard Nixon impression,

3. How about live voice chat?

Paltalk has had it for years. All it takes is a $20 microphone and a small, free program which DU could provide. Not rocket science.

I urge DU to incorporate this simple technology into the site.
