Has anyone Listened to the radio yet?
If you have sucessfully listened to the radio, can you please post about it so I know it worked for everyone?

Also, has anyone tried or at least seen the (audio) chat or A/v profiler? The a/v profiler is found in your control panel. It lets you leave audio/video messages on the site. The icon looks like a microphone.

The audio chat can be found in the chat window where you see the word (audio). Both the a/v profiler and the (audio) chat require the flash 7 plugin.

I sent another mailing out
I send out another email using the update/info list. If you wish to unsubscribe from it, simply reply with the subject unsubscribe. Oops, i just realized I messed that up so you will have to wait till the next one to unsubscribe.

I will only be using it to alert you of new features as they become avaiable.

Here is a copy of the email below for those of you that do not belong to the site yet. You can see what you are missing. Which is a lot by the way. When you log in much more becomes avaiable to you.

There are lots of Updates for the site.

RADIO - We now have better radio integration with the site. If the radio is on, you will see a box under your control panel with a picture of a little radio and the name of the song playing. Click on the song to stream the estrip radio station. I would suggest using iTunes although there are plenty of other players out there.

FLASH CHAT - The flash audio chat also now detects if it is avaiable and displays a little (audio) link in the chat box. Click on the (audio) link to open the flash chat program. The flash audio chat allow you to speak with a microphone when communicating with other chatter.

It is also a realtime type based chat, no more waiting for refreshes.

A/V PROFILER - The AV profiler can be found in your control panel. If the site detects that the flash server is online you will see a little microphone in your control panel. click on it to record audio/video clips with the profiler. It's fun for everybody. I recorded a test one for everyone to see.

RSS Fixed - The rss should now properly display journals with quotations. I also stopped stripping html links and added a little note where media was removed in each entry.

CALENDAR - When you click on the this month's name on th event calendar it now displays every event after today's date in that month. Today's events are highlighed in red.

MAILING LIST FOR JOURNALS - The mailing list for journals is completed and entries now come with all images attached right to the email. The subject is "username - blogTitle" and if you respond to the email, the author receives it.

USER SOUND - User Sounds can now be up to a whopping 250k. They can be in mp3, wav, or mid format.

COMMING SOON: estrip member profiles.

If you would like to partcipate in the beta of this service, please email (e:paul) . It is particularly useful for mobile devices such as the t-mobile sidekick or other smartphones that can receive emails with attached photos. If you have such a phone, I would really like to test it with other smartphones besides the t-mobile sidekick.

Each entry comes from the author and you can reply directly to them.
