VoiceBox

Hello, all,

I've mentioned this project a few times over the last few months, and I wanted
to post an update because, at long last, an Alpha release is ready.

VoiceBox is a community media/feed aggregator/news space/conversation space. A
high level run down of the featureset includes:


* Customizable user profiles;
* Discussions with embedded images, audio, and video;
* Publishing pictures, audio, and video via mobile devices and/or email;
* Content aggregation via rss;
* Remixing, curating, and republishing content within issues;
* Sharing content to eternal sites or via email; and
* Slideshows of featured content on the site homepage and selected landing
pages.

It's built in Drupal, and is free to use, adapt, and modify as you see fit.

The code is available at http://code.funnymonkey.com/project/voicebox
The project on drupal.org is at http://drupal.org/project/voicebox
Project documentation is at http://code.funnymonkey.com/doc/voicebox
And, a more detailed announcement is at
http://funnymonkey.com/community-media-grassroots-outreach-voicebox

The project was funded by the Knight Foundation, and we're pretty excited to see
what people make with this.

Cheers,

Bill
