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.

More and more people now days are attempting to build their own website, and expect it to pull together in just a few minutes. Unfortunately for them this is not at all the case. Building a community and attracting visitors to your website requires allot of work. Domains Seller websites give everyone the impression that when you build a website you automatically get thousands of hits like Facebook, or Youtube. All i have to say to them is Good Luck. Fortunately i have come up with a few tips of my own on building a community for your website.
1. The Community Knows- Listen to your visitors opinions if they give you feedback. Most people make a website expecting to have a very large obvious. Kind of like getting the community to surround him, when he should in-fact be surrounding the community. Take feedback from visitors very seriously. In-fact you should probably have an easy link to your email and or a contact form located on your website.
2. Make it easy for them to access you- Sign up for every social networking website that you can think of including, Facebook, Youtube, Myspace, and Twitter. These websites will become crucial in letting your visitors know that there is fresh content on your website. Also create more than one email account. One that it for the community to email you like bradley@bradwelltv.com, and other ones to receive all of the newsletters from the websites you have signed up for. Make sure you update everything often. That may even mean a few times a day. Just don’t forget that there is a difference between advertising and spamming.
3-Attract the right people- If your running a sports website, you obviously don’t want to get the biggest geek that has ever lived onto your website. You want people that are interested in what you are talking about. Post comments on other Blogs, preferably ones that are related to the subject your are looking for. They usually have a Field where you can put a link to your website. Just remember not to spam on these websites. Your visitors wont respect you if they see that you are Spamming in any sort of way.
4- Stay Committed- If you want a community, you are going to have to work for it. Building a web community takes time just like anything else including school, chores etc. Make sure that you are doing what you want to do, and makes sure that you enjoy it. No one wants to be around someone who dislikes his own work. Staying committed could possibly mean updating when you are on holidays. It could mean updating from a mobile device. It could mean skipping dinner with someone else. OK that you probably shouldn’t do, but you get the point.
5- Stay on topic- Make sure that you are focused on one topic so that the people that visit your website want to stay on your website. For example: If someone has a blog and they have a post about modeling then the next post they talk about spots. They are probably only going to get people looking at the two different subjects separately. What i mean by this is that most likely they will only see the one post, and then leave, as the visitor would have no interest in sports. This doesn’t happen 100% of the time, but is a realistic scenario.
I hope these tips will help you in whatever type of on-line community you may be creating, and i hope that your community will go places. Hey your first way to build a community- Comment on the Post.
Thanks
Bradley Bradwell

There have been more and more reports coming it recently that suggest that the end of the Internet if we don’t try to improve our technology, or if we slow our use down on the Internet. Bandwidth is being pushed to the max, and now with high definition videos coming out on Youtube, the question is, if there will be any of it left for anyone else.
It is estimated that the bandwidth used by youtube in 2007, was more than the entire bandwidth of everyone(in Canada) in 2001. What does that tell you? Now that Youtube is adding high definition. Could Youtube alone cause the end of the internet? With teenagers eating up bandwidth on Youtube, Facebook, Instant Messengers, and other social networking programs, teenagers eat up a huge chunk of bandwith.
Lets also take into consideration what would happen without the Internet. In my opinion the world will virtually stop. People have relied on the Internet for communication including email, online voice communication, and television. Yes we are all addicted. I myself have noticed extreme boredom upon myself without the Internet. A great portion of families have said that there likely isn’t one time of the day at least someone isn’t on the Internet.
In most cases, scientific studies are incorrect, but in my opinion the end of the Internet does seem possible. I myself know that i will not stop using it, so i am depending on the improvement of technology to save it.
Thanks

note: Study of Youtube usage is an estimate, and not an official pole, or scientific study.
There is a fairly recent program out there that lets you have similar effects that most Linux users enjoy today. It is called by its users as the cube effect, and is used to have multiple desktops. What i mean is that you have 1 desktop, and it switches to 6 other ones. What this means is more screen space. The program i am going to talk about costs money, but there are many similar free ones. This program is called Desk Space.
Now let me explain how it works. Ie: This is not how it appears. What happens is that you have 1 essential desktop. When you switch screens all of the programs that are running will minimize into the desk space icon, on the lower right hand corner of your screen if installed. If you click on the icon you will see a list of the programs that you have currently running on other screens. So basically what you are doing is minimizing into the icon and not the task bar. Its that simple.
I find this program to be very useful. I will have all of my instant messengers on one screen. Have all of my work on another screen, and then have all of the fun stuff like games, Facebook, etc. I definitely 100% recommend this program, or one that is similar which may be free to use. Deskspace comes with a 14 day trial. So try it out by going to http://zooltechnology.com. Very interesting program
What do you think?
