Next New Big Thing in Broadcast is being developed by YOU right now.
WHY SHOULD YOU CARE???
99% of all Cellphones have WiFi.
2% of all cars have WiFi.
By 2012 99% will have WiFi.
2012 ??? Will you be broadcasting on the web or watering a Crisis Garden in your back yard.
Why did Air America fail? Privatize the profits and Socialize the losses. Liberalism is irrelevant. People will pay for a voice of truth.

Step One: Go to www.register.com see if your dot com is taken. Pick something that will fit on a vanity plate. Not more than ten characters. Few small hints; do not use apostrophes for the sake of SEO (search engine optimization), place many hyper-links in your left most column, keyword text used in sentences at the bottom of your pages even several deep will drive traffic and boost your value to search portals.

Step Four: Put your Sound together. You can just put Itunes on the same computer you stream with and your done. I suggest Four Computers maybe ten. Check out eBay, I look for Pentium 4 IBM netvista computers any speed over 1 Gigahertz with 512 Meg RAM and an 80gig harddrive. Best deals are in a lot or group of 4 or 5 PCs for a total lot price around $50 per computer. These deals come with no monitors but Walmart sells an ACER 15 inch monitor for less than $100 new.You will need a copy of Windows XP pro to setup all the blank hardrives. Ask a teenager to help an old guy out.

Computer One runs your Audio Player either SonicCart or i Tunes.

Computer Two has a free download of Windows Media Encoder 9 installed and running. For encoding your audio stream from SonicCart on PC1 through your audio mixer board.

Computer Three is your Audio editor Cool Edit Pro 2 is what I like to teach and use. Adobe Audition is the latest version. You want to be networked and share recordings and files between SonicCart and your Audio Editor.

Computer Four is setup to run skype.com any internet browser and instant messangers www.Yahoo.com  and www.Microsoft.com

You want to mix the audio output of this computer into your on-air mixer. You can solicit telephone calls on www.Skype.com and instant messangers too.

What you play on your stream can hurt your audience, what you dont play cant hurt you. If you dont sound like a radio station you wont be perceived as one. SonicCart 2.2 Download

Step Two: Dig up an old slow 500mhz or better pentium celeron computer with at least windows 2000 or xp and download from www.microsoft.com windows media encoder 9 for free. This program is your internet transmitter and the only computer you need on the internet. I recommend www.Eset.com Nod32 anti virus for a few bucks well spent. Typical on www.ebay.com

Step Three: Here is the technical jargon "Port forward a router to stream from your connection. This is in the setup screen of the software that sets up your router. If you dont have a router you need one. If you dont have a fixed IP address you can add dynamic DNS.

Internet Gear: The simplest setup is a DSL modem/Cable modem, and router. Linksys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router Model BEFSR41 from Radio Shack is $60 and under $15 on eBay.
Internet Services Providers: You can ask for a Static IP address with your DSL or cable service provider our go with Dynamic DNS services to route changes for you.

Internet Streaming Services: John Besideck @ www.neuvisioninc.com will share or your stream and feed the net with the Bandwidth you need. Call him (727) 224-5111.

Studio Audio stuff: A small mixer like a $99 disco mixer at www.radioshack.com and couple of audio sources of your choice like mini disks, cd, turntables, cassette, mikes, speakerphone with audio taped to the speaker outputs and a set of amplified speakers. What makes a sustainable sound people will listen to...be available to the world but serve your community, be all about them, get them to call you and put them on your stream.

Streaming Technical expertise is always just a phone call away Internet John at (727) 224-5111 and Mark at (501) 859-0500.
