    Using Voice in Email?


    Hello,

    I am looking for a way to use 'voice' in my email. We use Outlook 2010 if that helps. Instead of typing out a long email, I would like to 'say' it, then attach it to an email. Another route would be to record what I have to say and send an email with a link to the audio. This will help with upload/download of the emails.

    I know I could just use 'sound recorder' or Audacity, then attach it to my email, but I need something less 'techy' for a member of staff that is just a point and click type of person.

    Do you have any ideas on what we can do?

    Thanks for any ideas!

    Cheers,

    Dave

    i use a phone for this purpose

    seriously though there is asite that you can record the message and send through them ,it emails you a link and then you can play it back via the site.
    i dont rate it much but it does what it says on the tin.

    I share your humour so no worries.....

    Part of our business is giving feedback based on a report this is sent to us via email. At times, it takes our 'assessor' 10-15 minutes to craft an email and his grammar isn't the best (which could reflect on our company as a whole). It would be an easier process for him to record a message and send it. He works odd hours so just picking up the phone to give feedback isn't an answer for us.

    I am looking for a click and record type of program or add on for Outlook 2010 that can help. Or even a web-based tool like Vocaroo (which may just work.....I need to have a play with that.)

    Thanks,

    Dave
