Embedded audio on NYTimes.com

Cory Bergman February 28th, 2007

This certainly isn’t new technology, but a great use of it. On today’s NYTimes.com homepage, just under the photo and headline of the Picasso stolen paintings story, is an embedded audio player with a report from the Times’ reporter in Paris. Just click and play. I like this idea of seamlessly embedding multiple media types in a flexible yet well-produced page, and the NYTimes.com does a fantastic job of it.

    1. Install microphone near art.

    2. Stream audio from microphone.

    3. Create virtual museum with streaming of what people are saying at that moment as they look at art.
