    You know what Geeks in Space reminds me of?

    My high school has a radio station, and if you're lucky enough, you can get a couple of hours each week for a few months to goof off on the air. Take any episode of Geeks in Space, take out the parts where they actually talk about news, and insert some music, and you've got exactly what these high school radio shows sounded like, complete with the occasional comment about how nobody's probably listening =)

  2. Geeks in Space by Dark-Helmet · · Score: 4

    I really like radio shows like these, just "everyday" people doing a radio show on what they think is important.

    I do have some suggestions:

    Stop saying no one is listening; Maybe its true, but hell no need to remind the people who *are* listening.

    Always keep the talking limit on; No more then two people should talk at the same time.

    Thats all I can think of right now. Keep up the good work.

    If you really want a really polished radio station like Geeks in Space then definatelly check out Does Humour Belong in Technology?. Maybe Geeks in Space can take some pointers :)

  3. Re:Napster - You can pick servers! by CptnHarlock · · Score: 4
    You have to "jump" servers. If you are looking for something in particular you keep it in the search filed and Disconnect, Connect, Search. I've heard of something called "Napigator" that lets' you choose napster servers. The servers are also named things like "Metal" and so on. There's also a page on www.napster.com for unsigned bands to promote their music or you can also meet a lot of people offering their own music on the chat channels. The reason for me being unprecise is I'm at work and I don't have Napster installed here. At school though I have my Napster running and shareing.. :-)

    BTW, have you heard "Dr Dre featuring Metallica - Money, money money (Abba cover).mp3"?... j/k .. ;-P

    Thank you.
