Thing 42! Music 2.0

For the last few months at work, I have been listening to MPR online on my work computer when I am back in my office area. I listen to news, and had not tried any of the music sites from Thing 41 until now. It was really fun to "customize" my Pandora list with artists I wanted. I will probably add more later. There is a link to the Pandora artists I selected on the sidebar of the blog. The QuickMix option is my favorite. I also established accounts with live365 and Receiva Internet Radio, and selected some favorites there to return to later.

After Jim Ed Poole retired, and the MPR Morning Show stopped broadcasting, Dale Connelly began Radio Heartland online. In the February 2009 issue of Minnesota Monthly, he said, "As people become accustomed to using their computers as radios, and as digital broadcasting becomes more commonplace, they will discover that it's just as easy to see what we're up to as it's been for the past 25 years." My listening habits have changed, and will continue as I discover more online options. (Thanks to De Bijloke for this photo of Jazz at Lincoln Center on Flickr, 07/07/07).
