While exploring the amazing new Ancient Rome layer in Google Earth I thought it would be useful for kids to be able to add “audio-bites” by way of annotation. The recordings might, for example, take the form of imaginary discussions taking place in Rome. After a little research I discovered Vocaroo.com This great little site lets you record a snippet of audio and upload it to the web. The recording can be played through an embeddable Flash Player. What’s really cool is that the player code can be pasted into a Google Earth placemark. There’s no need to register to use Vocaroo; the whole process couldn’t be easier.
