| 235537 | 2004-05-10 11:49:00 | Occasionally I would like to email a short voice message for things such as birthdays, Christmas etc. Does anyone know of a free site which will enable me to do this? A friend uses incredimail, but I don't use this at the moment. Thanks, Marnie |

| 235538 | 2004-05-10 13:31:00 | Hey there Marnie In the absence of any freely available tools that may be suggested by others on this forum, you can record a short 'wav' file using windows built in Sound Recorder if you have a microphone. Click Start / Programs / Accessories / Entertainemnt / Sound Recorder Click on the record button and record what you want. You can save it as a .wav file to your hard drive and attach that to your email. Beware though ... even a short .wav can be quite large in file size. There is an option to alter the quality of the recording, and therefore also reduce the file size. In Sound Recorder, click File / Properties, and look in the options under Format Conversion. For voice, a low quality mono file should be acceptable. You could also try converting the wav to mp3 format using a CD burning program like Nero if you have one, just save it to your hard drive rather than a CD. This would reduce a standard wav file by about 90%. Nice to see fellow Tauranga people here. J :D |
