IMA Webinar on the Public Radio Tuner

Posted: January 5th, 2009 | Author: Josh from Public Radio Player | Filed under: Public Radio Tuner | 5 Comments »

The Public Radio Tuner, a free application for the iPhone featuring hundreds of public radio streams, will be the subject of the next Integrated Media Association Webinar on Thursday, January 8, at 3 pm EST. The webinar will outline the features of the Public Radio Tuner and the unique collaboration behind its development. Public Radio Exchange (PRX) coordinated the efforts of American Public Media (APM), National Public Radio (NPR), and Public Radio international (PRI) to build upon the original Tuner offered by APM. The Public Radio Tuner is a pilot project, supported by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which was designed to encourage communication and knowledge sharing among the collaborators in order to harness the collective expertise, talents, and resources of the public radio system. The first milestone of the project has been delivered and Matt MacDonald, PRX’s Technical Projects Director, will provide a deep dive into the project details and answer your questions.

    Public Radio is indispensable! But also is my Blackberry Curve. Hope an app is developed soon for the BB.

    I love WBEZ but live in Milwaukee. I own a BB. Would love a BB app.

    I have a Blackberry and would love to have this app on my phone. I am a NPR addict and have to settle for downloading podcast or calling the NPR hourly news number. We all want this app!

    Shute wish you could develop the tuner for the Blackberry.
    Verizon does not have the iPhone. I have an iPod touch to play The Public Radio Tuner, but it uses Wi-Fi which is not everywhere.
