Old Spice

Old spice has been doing most excellent viral adverts of late, replying to Tweets, Facebook and Youtube comments, and questions posted on Reddit. One of these resulted in this post to Reddit, and then through excellent collaborative work between myself, Chriswastaken and isevenx, http://oldspicevoicemail.com/ had been up, tweeted by @OldSpice and then down due to being flooded by requests in under three hours.

Not bad for an evening’s work, and I now feel closer to the great Isaiah Mustafa, even if he hasn’t replied to me directly in a video.

Hey, there is a ladies version too!
Update the site so I can have a super awesome voicemail!

Great Job on the website!

Will you be adding the Woman’s version that posted via You tube not too long ago? Or will the site be solely for the men’s voicemail?

Great work, job well done.

I’ve never done audio stitching via PHP. Did you use some library or set of functions to do it or have you simply done a lot of audio programming before? Anything in particular you can recommend if I want to do something similar (not for old spice :P )

Thanks!

Uhm… T_T I wanted to make a male one but Isaiah’s awesomeness is in the way. I can’t click the boxes nor see most of the selections.

Please do a bit of tweaking? I’d love to have one of these!
