Since several years we [Audacity team] have a feedback email. People write to it to tell us that Audacity rocks or, equally common, that it sucks. Several mails a week tell us Audacity was rebranded and sold under a different name at eBay (we stopped worrying about that ever since the Luxuriosity thing all them years ago). Some people ask if Audacity could be redone as a web app (it can’t). Well, since today we also have our little share of pranksters. As pranks go, however, this one is a little disturbing:
have you considered developing a ghost phone with your software to alow the dead to call the living with voice dialing, i’ve done a little bit of research into it and its acheiveable, thomas dolby discovered that there are certian places on the earth where the dead can be heard with a tape recorder and with modern psionics it is posible to recreate these energy feilds to alow cross dimensional communication dead to living, are you down for a little occult scientist network administration, like honestly i live in the same house as my dead grandpa and it would be great if he could call his living relatives up, maybe you could throw the ideal around the office or something maybe even come up with a skype plugin or something
Now, the only thing I really hope is that it’s nothing but a prank. Otherwise someone is bound to have his/her head examined.
