07/25/16

After many years in the making, IC students launched MegsRadio.fm ahead of the Grassroots Festival of Music & Dance this past weekend.

MegsRadio.fm is a locally-focused personalized Internet radio system. You can download it for free from the Apple App Store or check it out online at http://megsradio.fm. 

We are also looking for volunteers to help us test out MegsRadio over the next two weeks. All we need you to do is use the app for a couple of days and let us know what you think. Please sign up here if you are interested: https://goo.gl/forms/TYiKnNb1BOzACKzk1
