Slashdot Mirror
Visual Radio Coming to India
morpheus83 writes "India continues to march towards becoming an IT and economic super power. The Indian capital of New-Delhi will become the the third city in the world to have a commercial Visual Radio service after Singapore and Helsinki (Finland). The technology developed by Nokia allows audiences to interact with the radio programs. The audio is received via a regular analog FM radio whereas graphics and text are streamed over a data connection. It will be available to Hutch and Airtel subscribers who have compatible Nokia handsets."
"Visual Radio"

"What does slashdotting mean?"
"You've never heard of slashdot?"
"I know it makes websites not work."
visual radio, I wonder what it would be like to have pictures along with audio... I can hardly imagine such a thing!

No, no, no! You fellas have got it all wrong! It's just like radio, but with pictures!

Believe me, if I started murdering people, there would be none of you left.
So while im talking on my wireless phone, watching the directors cut of "silence of the Lambs" on a tiny LCD, scarfing down a burger and a large soda, i can now look over and see a picture of a random slutty popstar? Guess i got no time left for stop signs and crosswalks.
...if it allows me to electrocute the DJ every time they make a witty remark.

I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer.
No, an RSS aggregator just collects feeds. Slashdot also repeats them, making it an RSS aggravator. ;)

I don't think this will be much of a hit.
If they could produce pictureless television, it would be a very different matter. But that will probably just remain a dream for many years.
