Juicy Development has announced Talk Radio 1.0. Talk Radio is the perfect companion for truck drivers, business travelers, and vacationers. Using location-aware searching, Talk Radio quickly identifies where and when a user’s favorite talk show is available. By using Talk Radio listeners will never need to miss their favorite host or worry about being bored on the road again.
Using the Talk Radio application is easy – users simply select the host they wish to listen to. With a simple click, Talk Radio uses the iPhone’s Core Location technology and a proprietary algorithm to presents a list of radio stations and program air times in your area. A manual search option allows you to find exactly what they want no matter where they are.
Talk Radio searches for programs including Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Laura, Sean Hannity, Alan Colmes, and Glenn Beck. Additional hosts are being added regularly and users are encouraged to submit requests online. Designed to take advantage of the iPhone location and network capabilities, Talk Radio learns from users who report coverage, corrections, or changes and transmits that information to everyone with the application automatically. Left wing, right wing, or just wanting to hear the latest gossip, every radio listener will want this application.
Currently Talk Radio only works within the United States but, as a “learning application”, collects information from our listeners who report in. International entries in our database are growing quickly.
