While the Google Blogger site has done a fine job and we will continue to post here occasionally, the move will allow us more control over the display and other features, as well as additional uses we have planned for the future.

Over the next few days, you may find that things are up and down. This was expected and is why we are doing a soft launch like this. Yesterday the temp server did well with the playlist that we assigned to it. Over the next few days, we will be rolling things over to the new server, but since this is a soft launch, each of you will be presented with the opportunity to listen in as this

We are set up on a temporary server over at Live365 while we continue to get things ready during our soft launch. We are running with a limited playlist and you might notice the content is a little dated. There is a reason for this and it will be explained as things progress.So, until we get the main server ready to go, please take a minute to check us out at the following link. Please understand

During the preparation for the Soft Launch, some bugs in the process were discovered. While these were minor issues, they did give us the opportunity to re-evaluate the entire process. As a result, we are pushing back the launch of Cool Cast Radio until September 19th, 2005.This is the very reason we had the pre-testing and it is obviously much better to find out about, and fix these issues, no

All joking aside, if you thought the young people of the world are the only ones into the latest Internet trends, you may be wrong, and survey company CLX has come out with a poll suggesting just that. According to the story on Podcasting News, podcasting is most popular with those over 45, weighing in at 21%. The 15-24 year old age bracket came in at a much lower 13% proving that the 'young

Well folks, I have spent the better part of today getting organized, listening to potential podcast content, and making sure that everyone is being sent the needed paper work.All and all, the podcasts that I have heard thus far have been simply outstanding! I think what really caught me off guard was the sheer variety that is available out there. I am noticing that radio personalities are

Hello all, I wanted to take a minute and let you know what the difference is between the BX Radio Network and Cool Cast Radio. Basically, Cool Cast Radio is the brand that will be playing host to the podcast content for the BX Radio Network. As we grow, we will likely be adding new brands for other types of audio content.Hopefully, this clears up any miscommunication that might have existed.

After our first half day with press release out, we have interest from two new Podcasts. The first being the AgWired Zimmcast, a podcast oriented towards the Agricultural business. Since the 'invention' of podcasting, there has been a bit of a misconception that it is only about 'cool stuff', but with major news networks now getting into the market, it clearly is for everyone. This is proven
