It took some time but pretty much all the P2P websites (that I know of) on the market have reacted to Taji’s Frankenstein Monster suggestions we made. I have listed their reactions Chronologically (and apparently alphabetically… which is a nice coincidence).
All of them replied publicly except for Voice123 who sent me an email with their reactions. Since I don’t have permission to reprint that email I’ll just republish the reactions of the other 3 major website with the hopes that Alex, Juan or Steven from Voice123 will grace us with their reply publicly.
No Michelle Summers mentions that there are other P2P websites out there… Personally I am not aware of any others so if you guys do know of them… please leave a link of the P2P website that was not mentioned in the list of sites.
I would like to clarify to those reading that when I mentioned Social Media Integration in the profile pages of these websites I mean the possibility of integrating a place on the profile page where the profile owner’s latest tweets can be displayed or if they have a blog … that their blog’s RSS would display snippets of the latest article that person wrote. There are more social media variants but those are the two that stood out.
I would like to thank everyone who participated on both ends of the discussion from the VO actors to the VO Casting site owners and operators. And if anyone has any ideas not mentioned in the other two articles then please add them in the comment section:

This is just a thought. I recently tried to contact a voice over professional to ask her/him permission for something. I looked around her/his website but couldn’t find a way to contact him/her except via a contact form.
There is nothing strange about that… people hate to list their emails because they don’t want to get spammed so they use a contact form so that their email addresses are hidden. I do it myself on my website but since some people seem to dislike using the form system I decided to list my email but as a jpg image file so that the email harvesting bots (I always think of them as looking like the over-tentacled robots from the matrix.)

Good Day to all ye gentlefolk!
Today I shall showcase a massive collection of voice over related videos from around the intertubes. I will kick off the collection with a seminar by Kristine Oller called “Ditching Your Day Job”. I will feature some of the videos as embedded vids and others as just links so as not make this post a scroll-down fest.
Since many of these videos are tutorials on voiceover networking or vo equipment… I will move the listing of these to the TVE free tutorials page later this week.

One of the perks of having your own blog on your own server is blogging about whatever the heck you want to. I was introduced to Dr. Who back in 2005 when the BBC reintroduced the series … updated, revamped and wicked entertaining.
Here is the latest trailer for Dr. Who … with the new guy (Matt Smith) that replaced David Tennant.
Like every new incarnation of the Dr. I begin with hating the new guy… accepting him… then feeling sad that they’ve decided to leave the show.
