Internet Radio - What Does it Mean to You?
When Marconi invented the radio, I am sure he had no idea how much of an impact he was going to make. All of a sudden the world had a new communications tool and the world began to shrink. All of a sudden events that were taking place in other parts of the world was now international news. Before the advent of satellites circling the earth to carry radio signals far and wide, the radio was limited to small areas because of the massive towers needed to get that signal as far as possible.
Eventually the internet was born and the whole world shrank yet again and communication was at hand for anyone with an internet connection. However it was not until broadband started to rule the internet that internet radio came into its own. Now we can hear motivational speakers, live internet radio stations etc at the push of a button.
However what does this mean to you, for a long time the internet was basically text and graphics. We were all tied down to sitting and reading stopping us from doing other things. Now that internet radio is becoming a huge medium, you can now tune in to one and still carry on working while you are listening.
There are many thousands on radio stations now online covering almost every subject or genre of music. It is a no brainer now, every one with a broadband connection can tune in and get the very latest information on any subject. Yes I am very sure Marconi never knew what he had invented and what is did for the world.
