More Internet Radio

[Muddypause]

Point your media players at http://212.72.186.18:8340 to listen to Eco Shock Radio. I've only just found it, so don't know much about it, but it seems to emanate from Canada. No idea who is behind it, or who funds it, but I think it is probably re-broadcasting interviews and features from other networks, all with an environmental point. Seems to give a variety of views within this brief.

Another one that may be of a similar nature is on http://64.62.252.134:7306 called Radio Green Live. The website says it doesn't start broadcasting until Feb 28th, but I'm listening to a programme about solar power ATM. But mostly it seems to fill in the time with some rather nice sounds of a forest. Don't know anything else about it yet; maybe the website will say more after 28th.

These both come from the ShoutCast server, which is part of the Winamp organisation, but they should work on other media players too. You need to find the box that says something like 'Enter URL:' which is found on Winamp by right clicking on the 'Play' button, then choosing 'Open URL'. On Windows Media Player, click on 'File' and then look for something like 'Open URL' or 'Open File'.

This is brilliant Stew....

I'm just listening to the climate mash - one of the eco-songs on the Eco Shock homepage....

After following the link to the climatemash website I've found a video to go with the song...it's definitely worth a look
