Freesound Reaches 10,000 Files

Posted by samzenpus on from the the-sound-of-an-insane-man-pulling-the-hair-out-of-a-baboons-back dept.

Bram writes ""The Freesound Project aims to create a huge collaborative database of audio snippets, samples, recordings, bleeps, -not songs-... released under the Creative Commons Sampling+ License. The Freesound Project provides new and interesting ways of accessing and browsing these samples." In less that 7 months we've grown to 30,000 users and today we finally reached the first goal of the project: we've collected over 10,000 samples, added by various people around the globe: only a slashdotting would be a suiting birthday cake. If you do visit Freesound, don't forget to have a look at the Geotagged Samples as they are well worth it."

    Since when is having your servers raped by an oncoming hoard a suitable birthday present?

      Such horrific abusive treatment might have been an appropriate present for a Sony birthday.

      Please, do not equate HTTP connections with sex. I'd hate to loath my computer for getting more than me.

    Do they have the sound of a tree falling in the forest when no one is there to hear it, yet?

      One hand clapping? A politician admiting to a mistake? The massive boom as their server explodes?

      Yes.. but they keep in in a place where there's no-one to download it.

    the sound of a burning server.
