These past few months have been extremely busy and we're proud to announce the launch of Voices.com's Winter '08 Release, a comprehensive list of service updates and feature additions that have just gone live.

I'm very excited to let you in on what we've been up to!

Here is a list of some of the recent updates that have taken place within the last quarter.

Home Page

• Internet audio category in the Featured Talent Directory
• Political Demos category in the Featured Talent Directory

• Dynamically updating "Recently Hired" list of those voice talent who have been hired and paid using SurePay escrow

• Direct links to blogs, podcasts and news in the "What's New" section

Search Engine

• Highlighting of keywords in search results
• Search results display category icons to the demos
• Expanded keyword search capabilities
• Internet audio category added to the search engine

Profiles
• Add This social bookmarking widgets using AJAX technology
• "Send Money" option for fast payment of voice over jobs

Podcasts
• Voices.com's newest podcast “Voice Casting” is now at your service. Learn how to find a voice actor, what to look for in a voice, how to work with voice actors, and most importantly, how to brand your company using the power of the human voice.

Blogs
• "Voice Agents" is the future home of what promises to be the central hub for voice talent agents to publish articles about their industry, projects, best practices and promote their services through words using the power and reach of the Internet.


What I'd like to draw your attention to is a fabulous opportunity to be featured in the new Internet voice over category.

If you haven't updated your Featured Voice Talent categories recently, you'll want to login and make sure that you get on this hot list. The demand for Internet voice overs is growing significantly.

If the spirit moves you, update your demos now.

    Nicely done, Stephanie & Staff.

    Evolution is a good thing. I have one tiny suggestion, and that would be to add/include the Political demos category for optional additional demo upload to the individual voice talent's Voices.com website. It appears there would be enough bandwidth and would be a welcome update for those of us who do politicals regularly.

    Thanks for listening.

    All the Best,
    Bobbin Beam
