Google Maps Out Loud

Woices

Woices is a free internet service that allows people to create, share and consume audio records which are linked to specific geographical locations. Each audio record created is displayed on, and can be accessed via, a Google Map.

Anyone can add an audio record about anything they want, from history, art or curiosities to personal memories, advice or even poems. Users can record an audio record very easily without the need of any third-party software. Alternatively, they can upload mp3 files.

To listen to the audio records users can use the web, download them as mp3 files or listen to them through an internet enabled mobile phone.

Other features of Woices include walks and user groups. But don't take my word - listen to this audio introduction of Woices:
