An all new Radio Station! Including Chris Pirillo!
May 11, 2008
Well there is a new radio station in town. Ok maybe not in town, but within the whole world. It’s called KBC Radio. With Shows on Channel 12902 on Ubroadcast, KBC has new shows including Tech2do live, The Chris Pirillo Show, and KBC News.
Here is a bit more about KBC:
The Kanwell Broadcasting Corporation(KBC) First started in 2004, as a radio station on ubroadcast. Yes it was indeed us at the dial of 632. It was a sports radio station, that caught very few peoples eyes. With only two shows every week, it was not grabbing the attention KBC was hoping for.
In late 2006, KBC Radio shut down due to the insufficient work of the station. The Owner Bradley Bradwell was also going through personal difficulties including the death of several family members.
In January 2008, there was a rebirth. Bradley Bradwell was ready to go, but this time he was going to reshape the whole station and get the most qualified speakers on his station. This includes Chris Pirillo, and Brad Roberts. Yes KBC was now a station with the best speakers of news, technology, sports, entertainment, and much more. We are dedicated to bringing you the latest in these subjects. With a new list of shows including the KBC hourly news, KBC is as big as it has ever been.
If you would like more information on The New KBC radio go to Their Website, and learn more about their shows.
KBC also has fee advertising. If you are interested in Advertising on KBC radio email me at bradley@bradwelltv.com.
KBC is also looking for Talk Shows, so if you are interesting in having your own show, email the address above. There are only a few spots left.
Anyway, Hope you enjoy the new Station in town.

New Facebook Security Features
May 10, 2008
Apparently Facebook is adding more than 40 new security features according to.techblorge.
This seems interesting, but is it really going to prevent things from happening. I mean this is the internet that we are talking about isn’t it. No one is ever safe. Facebook will obviously never be 100% safe nor will any other website in the world.
Although i do appreciate Facebooks effort to limit pedifiles from getting close to children.

Finally The Iphone is coming to Canada!
May 1, 2008
According toCBC, the Iphone will be coming to Canada later within the year. This is the second time that i have heard of this. They reported that Rogers said Tuesday that it has reached an agreement with Apple to bring the world famous phone to Canada.
Cbc says that the company declined to give pricing information, infact both Rogers and Apple have kept the business very quiet.
Not to say that the Iphone isn’t already in Canada. There are thousands of people that have made the trip to the states and unlocked the phone to work with Rogers. Apple also plans to sell 10 million Iphones by the end of this year alone. An estimated 5 million Iphones have already been sold.
Thanks

Miley Cyrus Pictures and Technology!
April 29, 2008
Most of you have probably heard all of the news with the Miley Cyrus pictures. In fact i was on the homepage of Youtube today, and that Rss Video feed you see on the opening page. It was showing a video being watched about Miley Cyrus every single Scroll.
So this brings me to my point. How much has technology effected the way we think of superstars now days. How much does this effect our children? Is there a proper way to use the internet?
The common user of the Internet especially small children have no idea that whats on the Internet stays on the Internet. Even if you try to delete it, there is still someway to get it. This has become growing problems with Youtube, Facebook, and a whole bunch of other social networking sites.
Another question would be whether Miley made a mistake with these pictures, or whether she did it intentionally to get attention (which she most definatly got). Some celebrities are using the internet to their advantage and posting stuff on it. Stratigically speaking, although it may not be the good type, it still is attention.
I know this is a little bit confusing, but i thought that i would just post my thoughts for the day.

Is the Iphone ever coming to Canada?
April 20, 2008
I have been searching and searching the net and still there is no 100% positive sign that the Iphone is indeed coming to Canada? I personally am getting a little impatient now that i am looking for a new phone. It also bothers me that no wireless company or Apple has really came out and gave any announcements to when the Iphone is coming out, or weather it is coming out or not. I have seen small articles all over the net as to assumption on when there might possibly be a release date, but i still have not found any solid information.
I know there is an ability to unlock the Iphone in Canada, but that really is so much work to order it from the united states, get it shipped up here to Canada, and then have to figure out how to unlock the darn thing. I know of only one person in my area of the world who has unlocked the phone, and still aren’t getting the best service out of it.
If anyone knows any information on when the Iphone will be released, please email me at bradley@bradwelltv.com, or leave a comment below. I would really like to hear some solid information as to when this “amazing device” is supposed to be released.
Thanks

Review on The QuickCam Pro 9000.
April 20, 2008
The QuickCam Pro 9000 i have found to be very useful to me. I have used it for all of my broadcasting at live.bradwelltv.com.
However there are some ups and downs to it, including the microphone. You would never know that the microphone is supposed to cancel noise, as there is always a constant buzzing on it. It also fuzzes up if you talk very much more than a whisper. If i had to rate the microphone on the webcam it would be a 2 out of 10.
The Camera however is a different story. With an 8 mega pixel camera, it just amazes me how clear it really is. It looks sharp, and very clean. It also works very well with video editing software. That is about the only thing you can say about the Camera. It is very good.

Review on The Canon ZR500
April 20, 2008
Specs
800 times digital zoom
Digital Video Camcorder
FireWire Port
Zoom
Light
Screen Protection
Exterior Screen 2.7 inch
Multiple Batteries
Approximate Battery Charge Time : 3 hours
—-
The Canon ZR500 has excellent image quality and is very small and portable. It takes 3 hours to charge fully. That’s not that bad. In my package they sent me 2 batteries. It has a whopping 800 times digital zoom, with a firewire port that comes with it. It has good lighting, with a plastic cover for screen protection. Sound has an ok quality… I would rate it at about a 8 out of 10 with 10 being the highest. It is also a very tough Camcorder. I dropped it countless times and have had absolutely no problems with it after the falls. By the way i dropped it on the road, which was paved. It also comes with a 2.5 widescreen, connected to it exteriorly.
Thanks Bradley Bradwell
Making professional slide shows and videos with Animoto!
April 18, 2008
Today i have come across a website that has addicted me ever since i found it. It’s called Animoto and the purpose of this website is to take your pictures and make them into a professional looking video. When i say professional i mean professional. I will paste the link to a sample video at the end of this post.
How you do it- First you create an account. You have two choices. Number 1- Make a 30 second video which is very high quality and FREE, and then there is one that you can get longer. Unfortunately for that you have to puck up some dough. The 30 second one is really all you need though.
Then they will ask you to upload the pictures for you video. They prefer you upload between 10 and 15 images as if you do any more they will be cut off. This should take only a little while depending on your Internet connection speed.
Next you are able to choose from a selection of songs for your slideshow. The best part is that your slideshow will play to the beat of the song. If you don’t like any of their beats(which i highly doubt you will dislike) you are able to upload your own song from your computer.
After that you fill in the required information for the presentation, and click next. There they will produce the movie within several minutes. You will get an email when it is fully produced. Then watch as Animoto amazes you.
The finished product is really quite remarkable. Taking less than 15 minutes i see a video that would take me weeks or more to build on my own. Here is the video i made..
If you are interested in making your own account go to animoto.com and get started. Animoto if i had to rate it would defiantly be a 10 out of 10 for performance, but also for the speed in which it is finished at.
Thanks
