RADIO STATION MANAGER

Campcaster

A free and open source automation system for radio stations
Campcaster is the first free and open radio management software that provides live studio broadcast capabilities as well as remote automation in one integrated system.

Campcaster helps you run your radio station. Do automated broadcasting and live studio playout in one system: schedule your broadcasts from the comfort of your own home with the Campcaster Web component, or do dynamic live shows with the Campcaster Studio desktop application.

What's the big deal about this release? We'll cut to the chase: Campcaster 1.1 is the first release that is stable and feature-complete enough to be used in production systems. Indeed, the Campware implementation team will be helping to roll it out to multiple radio stations in Sierra Leone later this month. Other major radio stations are starting to adapt Campcaster to their needs: Austria's Radio Orange is adapting the playout system to work with it's digital archive, while in Hungary, a network of independent radio stations is integrating Campcaster's storage server into its IKRA project, a generic public website engine for radio stations.

"Awesome! Where can I get it?" you ask. The first thing you should know is that Campcaster only works on Linux. We recommend Ubuntu Dapper or any other Debian-based system.

IPv6 Internet Protocol 6

"The IPv6 protocol is the next generation of the internetwork datagram delivery protocol of the Internet protocol family. Programs may use IPv6 through higher-level protocols such as the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or the User Datagram Protocol (UDP), or may interface directly to IPv6. See tcp(7P) and udp(7P). Direct access may be by means of the socket interface, using a "raw socket," or by means of the Transport Level Interface (TLI). The protocol options and IPv6 extension headers defined in the IPv6 specification may be set in outgoing datagrams."

Unprecedented step challenges 'privatization of knowledge'

Professor Steven Lerman, chair of the MIT faculty, said that the project stemmed both from enthusiasm for the opportunities that the Internet affords for wide-spread sharing of educational ideas, and from concern over the growing "privatization of knowledge." He noted that many universities, including MIT, see the Internet as a means of delivering revenue-generating distance education.

WiFi phone for Skype: no PC required

Netgear SPH101 WiFi phone for Skype

Posted Jan 4th 2006 6:50PM by Kevin C. Tofel
Filed under: CES, Wireless

Netgear announced their new Skype WiFi phone that needs no PC; Skype, of course, obviously comes pre-loaded since you don't want to carry yet another phone just because you can. Just enter your Skype name and password and you're set to call all of your Skype buds whenever you're in range of some WiFi. What's that, your peeps don't have Skype? No prob since you can seamlessly use your SkypeIn or SkypeOut account just as well. We're guessing that the WiFi flavor is either 802.11b or 802.11g, although Netgear also announced RangeMax to support Skype on their WPN824 RangeMax wireless router. No juicy details on pricing or availability just yet, so keep using that cheesy headset for now

from $129.95 (May 2007)

Local and Access Television in the UK

...the basic question is who will have the power and organization to make use of the new technologies. In themselves, they are quite neutral: they could be used for "the Jeffersonian ideal", they could be used to undermine it.

The same has been true of radio, TV, and for that matter publishing. In fact, over the long term they tend to be used to undermine freedom and democracy, as a reflection of the distribution of actual power.

This is not inevitable--it is not a law of nature. But it is a direct consequence of social organization in highly inegalitarian societies.

My own prediction is that, as things now stand, the new technologies will be used largely to undermine freedom, not because of their nature, but because of the nature in which they are being developed.

INTERNET ONLINE EDUCATION

"MOODLE"

Moodle is a course management system (CMS) - a free, Open Source software package designed using sound pedagogical principles, to help educators create effective online learning communities. You can download and use it on any computer you have handy (including webhosts), yet it can scale from a single-teacher site to a University with 200,000 students.

Users

Moodle has a large and diverse user community with over 330,000 registered users on the Moodle Website alone, speaking over 70 languages in 196 countries (we have more statistics here). The best place to start is Using Moodle, which is where the main international discussions are held in English, but we have a variety of groups discussing other topics and in other languages.

Development

We have a long list of developers who contribute towards the development of Moodle. Start with our developer information as well as the roadmap, the coding guide and CVS guide to access our source code. Most discussion can be found in Using Moodle, but we also have a Tracker where you should report general bugs, feature requests, fixes and other issues. Sensitive security problems should be posted to the Moodle Security site, so we can deal with them appropriately.

Distributed Processing

UNITED DEVICES

Most computers aren't using all their computing power at a given time. Even when you are engaged in a game, creating graphics, surfing the web, you may only be employing a fraction of your machine's available computing power. United Devices has built a small, secure software agent for individuals to download to their machine that can save this wasted power and put it to use.

Intel-United Devices Cancer Research Project

Download the UD Agent and truly be a part of a world-changing project. The National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR) Centre for Drug Discovery in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oxford, England, is working with United Devices and our Member Community in the search for new drugs in the treatment of cancer.
