Audio Books

PamelaL @PamelaL (252) • United States 9 Sep 09

Do you enjoy audio books? I got interested in them when I got my ipod a couple of years ago. They don't replace my real books, either. I'm able to listen at work and what I like to do is listen to non-fiction at work, and read my...

jedopi I like audio books so much that I have started recording some at Librivox.org. It is an all volunteer organization that has volunteers that read public domain books and then uploads them onto the internet. You can find some great old classics there and a lot...

Audio Books

Do you "read" books by using Audio books? I find that I can "read" more books by listening to then in the car or when I take my daily walk.

jedopi Not only do I "read" books this way, I also record them. I work as a freelance narrator for Librivox.org and I am also starting my own site - Public Domain Audio Books on blogspot.

Did you listen to harry potter audiobooks?

vycess @vycess (1588) • Saudi Arabia 12 Jan 10

Harry Potter lovers, Did you listen and know about the audiobooks? It is really good, a person is narrating the book, making voices... It's like your watching it with your imagination. You can download it free.

jedopi I love to grill red shepherd peppers, zucchini, eggplant, onions, and tomato. When they are all done, I peel and seed the peppers and tomatoes, cut everything up into bite size pieces and then add olive oil, basalmic vinegar, salt and pepper. It takes so good...

sweet as honey @sweetashoney (3593) • United States 25 Jun 09

babydoll2 @babydoll2 (29) • Austria 7 Jul 09

i love the long walk...and sometimes jogging...

jedopi I definitely prefer walking. I am very overweight and jogging and especially runnning is not for me. Even as a young, very thin child I never really liked running (in school around the track) but I loved walking and could do it for hours.

What do you think of the Harry Potter movies David Yates directed?*spoilers*

Astraea @Astraea (175) • Sweden 27 Jun 09

Personally, I do not like the way mr Yates handled The Order of the Phoenix. It was the shortest movie and yet it was based on the longest book. He cut away too many essential parts and made it too fast paced. I tried to view the...

queennee @queennee (186) • Philippines 8 May 09

My husband says yes. What do you think? Do you know them? I'm sure you are familiar with some of their greatest songs like Yesterday, Help, Hey Jude, Let it be, and many more. If you are not a fan of this great boyband, try to...

jedopi I think that I would have to say Why Don't We Do It In The Road is their worst song. It's just plain weird. In fact, I know the white album was huge and is said to be one of their best albums, but I prefer the earlier stuff. All the songs on this album were a...

jedopi I'd say that I was probably about 11 or 12. I still remember the day when my mom woke me up a few years later to tell me that John Lennon had been shot. It was horrible for me. I was in high school then and I remember that they played Beatles songs all week...

Who is your favorite Beatle?

anna728 @anna728 (1499) • United States 7 Jul 09

John, George, Paul, and Ringo. Who is your favorite. Why?

jedopi I always liked George the best, then John. Paul and Ringo were tied. I always wished that George had more chances to sing his songs and not always John and Paul. I think George had a wonderful voice and he should have been heard more.
