Life on Record
Like voicemail for your personal history/memoirs. Life on Record has created a system where
friends and family members can call in and record stories, memories or well-wishes for certain
occasions.
I've used this service with my siblings to record a memory CD to give to our
parents for Christmas. We had such an enjoyable time that the four of us have
decided to "meet-up" on the phone monthly and record our conversation.
Once we finished recording, I easily downloaded the audio files to my iTunes
account. From there I recorded it to CD. All done!
It is set up to record an unlimited amount of conversation, but does it in 30 minute increments.
One of my favorite services that I've found.
