I'm going to assume that Mr. Wilson already knows about this, but for anyone still visiting this blog, I just wanted to mention that Alex Wilson's "TellTaleWeekly.org" audiobook site has received a nice mention in this month's issue of MacWorld.

After briefly discussing the Apple iTunes store with its offering of audiobooks and Project Gutenberg's little known collection of (computer-read) spoken-word volumens (about 400 according to the article), Matthew Honan concludes with this paragraph:

another low-cost alternative is Telltale Weekly, which sells about 100 human-read audiobooks at discount prices--for instance, Edgar Allen Poe's story "The Pit and the Pendulum" costs a buck; Franz Kafka's "Metamorphosis" costs $4; Kate Chopin's "The Kiss" is a mere 25 cents; and James Joyce's "Araby" short story, from Dubliners, is free. What's more, all works are DRM-free, and available in MP3, ACC, and Ogg Vorbis formats."

Congrats, Alex. I think that's pretty neat!
