You’ve Got .WAV Files
December 11th, 2005Roughly 63 million times a day, AOL users hear the voice of El Edwards. He’s the guy who said the words that helped Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan get together back in 1998: “You’ve got mail.”
If you’re into customizing your online experience, you can now send ten bucks or so to Edwards, and he’ll intone whatever you want … as long as it doesn’t contain foul language, take the Lord’s name in vain, or denegrate AOL. You don’t even have to deal with his agent at William Morris to make it happen.
