Dear Blogtalkradio hosts, callers and listeners,

We continue to be excited by what's happening at BTR. Our represented country totals are approaching twenty. Since yesterday we added shows from Argentina, Chad, Brazil, Turkey and Swaziland. Yes, that's right Swaziland. It's incredible to me that in less than 2 full days of "going live", we have attracted a host from Swaziland, a country the size of New Jersey, with a population of just over 1 million.

We are still working on the archive streaming feature. We have identified the issue and we are close to a fix. Hey, that's why we have the word "beta" in our logo.

As you will see in coming posts, I will be using this platform to promote certain shows that have caught my attention on Blogtalkradio. I hope you will listen in these shows and perhaps IM a question to the host or give them a shout using the dial in number located on the host channel.

On July 30th, at 9:00 est, their will be a Blogshow hosted by "Podpoet" discussing the effects on Hurricane Katrina. You can find the show details below, including a link to the host's blog.

Finally, don't forget to use the email reminder tool which is located on the Host Channel. I will be hosting a blogshow this evening at 6:00pm est. I encourage you to go to http://www.blogtalkradio.com/hostpage.aspx?show_id=477, and set yourself an email reminder to my next show and listen in, drop me a note at alanlevy@blogtalkradio.com or call (347)-677-06490 with a question.

Until the next time,

Alan
