The site is http://soundkey.com http://soundkey.com, and it aims to be something like flickr for sounds. So, the content it needs is audio (recorded directly on the website, or uploaded by the user) for any sound that the user feels they want to share.
It could be pronunciation of names, places, difficult words, etc, but it also can be just about any sound you think is interesting or want to share with others (since the website gives you a unique "soundkey" that you can post on facebook, twitter, etc.
- jwegan 16y agoSince the users can record the sound on your site I think this is a good candidate for using mechanical turk. You can review the work users submit and accept (thus paying them) or reject (deny them pay). Obviously if you deny a lot of people, you will have a reputation of not paying people, but I think if you give people very clear guidelines and review what people submit it will work. You can also add filters like only allow people with approval ratings of greater than 90% to try and ensure you get good workers.
- anigbrowl 16y agoAha...now that is very interesting. And I just happen to be a pro audio engineer. Also one that is behind schedule today :-/ but I'll create an account and email tonight. My first impression of the site is very positive.
- alanthonyc 16y agoYou know, I really think you've got something here. You'll have no problem with content once people start hearing about your site. I feel like uploading a bunch of random sounds just by browsing through what you already have. Nice.
