Public Radio on the iPhone

Here’s a quick fyi for iPhone users: The Public Radio Tuner, a free app available on iTunes, gives you (free) access to hundreds of public radio streams from across the US. Released in late January, the Tuner brings together feeds from NPR, American Public Media, and PRI, among others. This is a handy way to listen wirelessly to local news and cultural programming, plus many well-known shows (All Things Considered, Fresh Air, Car Talk, etc.) So far, the app works like a charm. You can download it here, or visit this web site to learn more about this new initiative.

Lastly, if you don’t have an iPhone, then this page does a good job of aggregating public radio feeds, and you can always listen to them as podcasts on your computer or mp3 player. Definitely worth a look…
