DAT Recorder

Picked up a portable DAT tape recorder today on Ebay. I hope to use this wonderful little (slightly old tech) machine to make recordings on my next trip to Asia. I want to record some of talks I have with people about their past and current lives. Last year I had a wonderful conversation with Long about her life but was unable to record it, much of the talk I have now forgotten. I would also like to place some small clips of these taped conversations on the blog or website.

It might be useful to make up a audio diary of some kind, which would allow me to organise my thoughts, and possibly use the tapes later in a book project/s of some kind.
