Radio Sherpa!

One of my biggest issues with listening to broadcast radio is that I don't know what I'm listening to. As soon as I find a really neat song/acoustic compilation, it turns out that it's being broadcast from a college radio station with DJs who assumes everyone knows what it is (why else would you listen to such noise?) or who plays 15 tracks in a row.

Radio Sherpa is an attempt to help with that via a snazzy Flash interface. You can currently see what's playing on all the various stations on Boston's FM/AM and HD airwaves. Sadly, the UI is Flash-only and currently broken for the GNU/Linux version of Macromedia's Flash player.

Good luck getting things going, Deva!
