That's pretty darn interesting. I hope things don't slow down too much during the summer months.

The project total is only a rough measure of productivity, but it's the only one we have. Projects range from under 30 minutes to over 40 hours so it terms of productivity only the 40 hours one is equal to 80 30 minute ones . (and its winter where I live)

I should not have forgotten about the seasons. I lived in Brasil for heaven's sake!

We are currently at 12997 completed projects. Which one will be 13,000!?

now 13001, which I think makes Black Box the 13000 https://librivox.org/the-black-box-by-e-phillips-oppenheim/.

Congratulations Everybody

Anne

Great!

Let me know when you're done with the cover, so I can write a post about it for our homepage (unless you'd like to do this too).

I've made it - I'm just not 100% happy with it. Do you think I should add the 1300 to the cover somehow ?

Anne

Personally, I'd find that weird.

Good, I did hope you wouldn't want me to.

I started reporting uploaded books per month instead of videos as the new Youtube interface does not have a good way of counting videos uploaded anymore and books is a better measurement anyway. First month with over 1 million minutes of view time!
