I like the Live 365 radio station.

Have you tried listening to it yet?

You can listen while working, or you can plug in your remote earphones to listen to this radio station too.

The really cool thing about Live 365 is that you can have your own radio station here. You can also play YOUR kind of music. There are a lot of different styles of radio stations to pick from, including the usual jazz vs. rock vs. Hip-Hop-Rap, etc. and also talk radio and New Age.

I like the idea of having my own radio station. This would be very fun to do some day. I will definitely put it on my list.

It's fun to experiment and listen to different styles of music here. I also enjoy the talk radio shows.

Let me know your favorite online station, or how you like this one.

Later!

I'm off to think about listening to Live365.

Gene Iglehart helps get computers ready for Ecuador

Member in the News!

Our member Gene Iglehart is in the news again, this time in a Bowling Green Daily News article.

I shared this on Facebook at the BGAMUG page (click to go there), but thought other BGAMUG members would like to hear about it.

Here is a quote from the article quoting from both Mr. Iglehart and Lynn Hartley, C.I.O. for the City of Bowling Green, Kentucky.

"For three months, Igelhart worked to get the computers into a condition in which they would be functional for the youth in Ecuador.

“To me it’s a privilege and an honor,” Igelhart said.

Hartley applauded Igelhart’s efforts. “He stays busy and is a big inspiration to see how involved he is in the computer,” Hartley said."


Here is that article:

Work by WKU Students, city, provides computers to Ecuador community.

Good job, Gene, and everyone involved in this worthwhile project!
