PLEASE NOTE:
The FeedRoom does not fully support the
Macintosh, Unix or Linux operating systems,
nor the AOL 4 and 5 browsers, or Netscape 6. |

Need to add opera 5.12 to that list. On my computer, it just keeps going back to the same page: 'The FeedRoom is not optimized for your
machine's operating system.' However, I was able to listen (although it came in choppy) in on IE6 on narrowband and could hear some of the feed here and there. If I were on broadband, I think it would be a really cool site. But the site is up-front, letting you know you're not gonna make it unless you have MSIE and broadband.

mivox says: "::snort:: I didn't bother to look beyond that bit of narrowmindedness. " How does a experimental site that is trying to pioneer a new technoloogy get called narrow-minded for not supporting obsolete browsers and browsers with almost no market share which can't display the new technology. Narrow-mindedness is marked by or reflective of narrow interests and sympathies. When a company plays to the browers that the overwhelming majority of web users are using they can hardly be cast as being narrow-minded. You got to the door but wouldn't look in, so we'll never know whether you thought it good or not.

There is an other site www.now.com that does similar real-time news but more sports/X-Gen oriented style. NOW broadcasts every 6 hour their news on the web site, simultaniously as they broadcast it on a Hong Kong satellite channel. It is a bandwidth hog, to say the least.
