ben wilson This is the blog of a one Ben Wilson, a Louisville, Kentucky native who enjoys baseball, beer, music, bikes, things that fly and good food. By day he pushes pixels and makes the Internet happen for a local advertising agency. His wife, Kelly is an Ironman, and his baby Amelia is the cutest thing ever.

Well, i’ve been concocting plans for theLocust.org Auto Radio, a completely automated, web enabled, user centric radio station o’er the weekend, and i just finished installing some text-to-speech software (TTS for those in the know), and its pretty good. This streaming radio-thing will allow users to request songs, upload ones they want to hear, view the current playlist, and every three songs or so, our lovely announcer, we’ll call him Nigel (you’ll find out why) will tell you what has been played and for whom. Yee-ha. Here is a sample of Nigel at work. Quoting Beastie Boys, nonetheless. The clip is in MP3 format, so if you don’t have an MP3 player, you are a loser. Ok, so maybe you’re *not really* a loser. Go to WinAmp to get one.
