StoryCorps – Now a DIY App!

Dave Isay has done it again.  First he built the award winning StoryCorps – the organization that lets ‘average’ people record their personal slices of history using StoryCorps state of the art audio equipment.  Now, Dave’s using his TED prize to let anyone turn their smartphone into a production studio.  The StoryCorps App guides people through the interview process, and at the end they can upload their oral history to the the Library of Congress, where everyone can hear it.  This video is a quick overview of ‘best practices’ for using the App.
