Nicecast 1.9 loves that newish cat

Nicecast “When I was a child I spoke as a child I understood as a child I thought as a child; but when I became a man I put away childish things.” Among those things I put away was a tape recorder. I used to run my own “radio station” by recording my ramblings and music (please don’t tell the RIAA, I don’t know the statute of limitations on these things) onto audio cassettes. No, I’m not going to dig those tapes out for your snickering pleasure on the next podcast. Dream on.

Nowadays, kids record podcasts. But before we had podcasts, streaming was all the rage. There’s nothing like working without a net. Nicecast enables that by allowing you to redirect audio on your Macintosh out onto the mysterious internet. Strangers will voyeuristically enjoy your vocal stylings (but let’s face it, you don’t have radio Dan voice, only Mr. Moren has that). It’s been updated to 1.9 to give us full Leopard compatibility. It costs a mere $40.

Oh gosh, and I thought I was the only one who did the radio program into the tape recorder thing...
