Longtime MoFo thmilin's going to be the voice of Google's self-driving car prototype

[Yoda]

The title's pretty much the whole story. thmilin (http://www.movieforums.com/community/member.php?u=46) has largely faded into MoFo lore now, but she's one of the "originals" (check out that userid: 46!) and we still keep in touch.

She's also a Googler (I remember when she got the job, in fact), and she's been selected to voice the prototype for Google's self-driving car (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_driverless_car). Miriam's a great choice; she's done voice acting work and even released an album (http://www.amazon.com/Miriam-Wynn/dp/B0028EVZPK). Very cool. :up: Here's a music video she shot for it:

So, lady's got a great voice, and whoever gets to drive Google's prototype need only worry about her lulling them to sleep. Which I guess would be okay, what with the car driving itself and everything.

Anyway, congratulations, Miriam!

Miriam was part of our Second Life crew back when people were messing around with that. She became friends with this dude I know and they ended up sharing some virtual property in one of the zones.

Go Miriam! :)

That's neat.

What's neater, for me, because I did not really know this person very well, was finding out what userid I was.

9280....ouch.
