Streaming Internet Radio | chart music | full albums

Very shortly, European Union users of the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar will be offered a choice as to what browser is to be used for accessing the internet. Your choice is important.

Users will choose between 12 different browsers, ranging from well-known browsers such as Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera, to some more obscure software, such as K-meleon and Sleipnir.

Why the choice?
Microsoft was forced to introduce the browser "ballot box" following a ruling by the European Commission that Microsoft's practice of pre-installing Internet Explorer on every new computer was anti-competitive. The Commission accepted Microsoft’s offer of rolling out the ballot box across its range of Windows machines, which it believes will make it easier for computer users to choose an alternative browser to Internet Explorer.

Which operating system?
The ballot box will be pushed to Windows users running XP, Vista and Windows 7, via an automatic software update, and will only be shown to computer users who are not already running a different default browser.

What should you do?
The Streaming Internet Radio toolbar currently works with Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari browsers (Apple Mac). If you are happy with your current browser set-up, you should do nothing.

If you wish to change your browser from Internet Explorer, we suggest that you upgrade to Firefox.

Should you change to another browser that isn't supported by our software, you will no longer be able to access our toolbar system.

To allow you to get the most from the new Reframeit menu on your Streaming Internet Radio toolbar, we have added the free Reframeit extensions to the menu for you to download and install.

Why would you want the extension?
The RSS feed on your toolbar allows you in touch with recent posts, but doesn't alert you when you chance upon older posts. With the free Reframeit extension installed, you will receive a small notification in your browser window if posts are present on the webpage that you are currently visiting.

Clicking the Reframeit icon will open up the commenting sidebar.

For Firefox

We have put together a page about Reframeit so that you can take a look at the features that the social commenting application can offer you. The page can be found here.

If you have any questions or comments please get in touch.

Google friend connect was a great idea, but it slowed loading times of pages on the site, and often crashed. As a result of this, I've opted to close the friend connect service on the Streaming Internet Radio toolbar website - however, it has been replaced by something much better.

We have teamed up with Reframeit and have added a button to the right of your browser window. Clicking the window will open a new sidebar where you can discuss our content.

Reframeit is available on your toolbar - it makes commenting on any website a breeze. You can sign in with Twitter, Facebook, or your Open ID. Soon, the Reframeit menu will be moved from the Social Networking part of your toolbar so that you can communicate with the Reframeit community much more easily - watch this space!
