April 15, 2006 Scott's Cyberbuzz @ STAR93FM.com for 4.15.2006 -- next update >> 5.15 >> go live plasma << Cyberbuzz Focus >> Love Music? Hungry for more? Try LivePlasma! This site's unique approach to inter-linking music lets you input an artist name and find artist similar in style.  LivePlasma also added a new movie section to the site with the same features as music. Around the World by phone in less than 1 second, for FREE Well, I finally used Skype this month after hearing about it for months. What is Skype? Free phone over internet. I paid $10 for a microphone from radio shack that plugs directly into my laptop. After that, I downloaded the software from skype.com, then installed and tested it. It worked! I then sent a co-worker off to Guatemala (she's adopting a child from there) and it worked unbelievably easy and clearly! In contrast to the FREE part, we paid .02 cents a minute so we could talk to her on a land-line (office mounted phone ) instead of computer to computer. I highly recommend the service. Go to the Skype site and let me know if you have any questions about my Skype experience. Also, check out Netgear's Wi-Fi Skype phone. It's brand new so I haven't had time to test it, but it looks pretty cool. Q: Where can I find local bands online? A: Give me a couple of months and you'll see a new "Local Artist Directory" on STAR93FM.com. The only way you'll be able to add an artist or band to our website is with a Star-ID which is created when you register for an account in our new members area scheduled to launch at the end of April... now this isn't a run-on sentence cause I put a few dots in there, right? :)  Anyway, once the local artist directory is online, you'll be able to search local bands by artist, genre, tempo, and more. Are you a local or national artist wanting exposure on STAR93FM.com? Send me an email and let me know what features you'd like to see added to the local artist directory. Also, send me any other suggestions while the local artist directory is still in the planning phase. Just click here to email me. >> Email Scott | cyberbuzz archive Interact >> Have a question about Cyberbuzz or anything on STAR93FM.com? Email Scott, the webmaster, with your questions.

Alex has opened our eyes to new possibilities with dontclick.it. Once you play with his website you'll have a new vision of the internet's future. Fly From Jackson To Hong Kong in 15 Seconds Google's "Google Earth" desktop is the greatest thing since sliced bread in my opinion. I was turned on to it about a year ago and have only used MapQuest! Maps once since then. Heck, I even forgot Yahoo! Maps still existed until a week ago. WARNING!!! Google Earth is like High Speed Internet. Once you get used to high speed internet, you couldn't imagine going back to dial-up. Well... once you get used to Google Earth, it's impossible to imaging anything less. BTW - It really does take 15 seconds to fly from Jackson to Hong Kong. Try it yourself. Q: Where can I watch Christian Music Videos? A: Well, that all depends on your taste for music: rock, pop, old school, etc. SkyAngel carries a couple of channels including Spirit Television (AC format) & TVU which is great for urban/modern rock and whose programming is similar in format to the original MTV (all music videos all the time instead of non-music & reality shows). As for Jackson area basic cable, you can watch various Saturday night music shows on Family Network, PAX, INSP & TBN. A favorite of mine is "One Cubed". If I remember right, it comes on Family Network around 10 or 11p Saturday night. >> Email Scott | cyberbuzz archive Interact >> Have a question about Cyberbuzz or anything on STAR93FM.com?

Did I mention kutless is number one on this week's Top 20 Meltdown.   To Catch a Predator III Scary... yes; especially for parents. But you must be informed as to what your kids are up against on the internet. Be sure to watch this series on MSNBC and learn how to protect your child from cyber predators. Q: Can I listen to Star 93.5 online? A: Not yet. I have received numerous emails about our online stream, or lack of one. We are looking to reacquire an online stream and return to broadcasting to the world from STAR93FM.com. eBuzz readers will be the first to know when our stream is back online, so sign up now to receive our email newsletter.
