We interview Shawn Ewald, programmer and volunteer behind the A-Infos Radio Project. The project has been serving an archive of independently produced and shared radio programming since 1996 -- before most of the world had heard of "mp3." Ewald recently opened up the source of the softward that runs the Project so that others may also use or improve it.

The mediageek radioshow is a weekly critical look at our media environment, with a focus on independent media and the people who make it.

mediageek originates Fridays at 5:30 on community radio WEFT (http://www.weft.org) in Champaign, IL, and is also aired on KQRP in Salida, CA and KRFP in Moscow, ID. Noncommercial radio stations and webcasters are invited to air the mediageek radioshow. Please let us know if you air it.

A podcast feed for the show is available at:

The show is 30:00 minutes.
The first file is the 64kbps broadcast quality mp3
