Traditional Radio Station goes Digital

After 5 years of existence, Indie 103.1 FM is no  longer  on the terrestrial airwaves but has moved on to an all Digital presence. 

 I actually started listening to them a couple of years ago after finding their online feed. I was in search of  a true Indie music station, since there is no radio station where I live in NC that played Indie artists. Most all we have around here  are  stations that play classic rock, Hip-Hop, Rap, R&B, Top 40’s, and Pop. 

This is the first I’ve heard of a normal radio station going from the traditional airwaves to being an all Digital  broadcast. Maybe this will start a new trend to heighten Internet Radio, since Traditional media is dying. Now if there was just a device that would allow you to access Internet Radio from your car, then I would say good bye to Traditional radio all together.

GO Away IE6

Recently I was reading an article about  how Google is now urging Gmail users to drop Internet Explorer 6 in favor of Firefox or Chrome. Google is claiming that Firefox and their new browser Chrome will run their popular webmail service “twice as fast”.. To read more about this in depth, check out the article here

Upgrades Galore

Just the other day I upgraded to 2.7 of WordPress as I mentioned in my last post. I’ve also recently upgraded some of my software packages too like Coda, AdobeCS4, and just updated my macs to the latest  update of OS X too. Just turned on my virtual windows machine and noticed it had a bunch of updates too. Wow, it’s been updates galore here lately with the software and Operating systems I use often.
