Well, the summer is finally here!

Its all go go go here at Wavestreaming. not only are we launching our Instant Radio Success Internet Marketing project - but we are also developing some exciting new products and features for our existing and new streaming customers, which will be made available later in the summer! Keep your eyes peeled for more information.

To kick this off, we’ll be making an announcement to all SHOUTcast and Windows Media customers today about a new BETA feature we’ve just created for your servers, so check your Wavepanel messages or email inbox to find out what its all about.

We’re also working on a fresh new look for our website, which will also be transferred to Wavepanel. We’ve had the green waves on our site for 4 years now! Our team of web designers have been busy, we’ve decided its about time the waves go and so we’ll soon be relaunching with a fresh new look.

Thats all for now, again soon.

Our development wizards have been busy yet again working their magic with your currently playing song titles. As you may or may not know, SHOUTcast has a ‘now playing’ field which will usually display the current on-air song.

To access this, we have for years provided a simple snippet of javascript to paste onto your website, however, this has always needed to have the page refresh before it will update. We have now created a system so it updates automatically, without the need for the page to refresh.

The best bit - the code you guys actually paste onto your website is still exactly the same (see example below) - we understand that lots of code can confuse you! thats why we have always had a simple ‘cut & paste’ ethos when it comes to stuff for your websites.

Following feedback, we have added a download link for iTunes to this as well. So if a listener likes a song you are playing on the radio - not only can they find out what it is, but then they can go to download it instantly from iTunes.

Code Example:
