Bridging The Gap: Making Managers Better Communicators

It’s just over a month to go until the Melcrum ‘Briding The Gap’ conference on Internal Communications, which will focus on how to make managers better communicators with the people on the ground in their businesses. We obviously think ipadio has lots to offer in this field – such as “CEO Jam” conference calls where [...]

Northern Exposure trekking to the North Pole

What I particularly love about ipadio is that because our technology is so versatile, you can never be sure where the next phonecast is going to come from. Like we say – it works on any phone, anywhere – so it could just as easily be from the middle of bustling or the middle of [...]

A new ipadio logo?

I’ve just spotted these and had to share them – they’re a couple of the images by the guys from Drawnalism, who illustrated the Thupr Social Media Week event we sponsored last week. I love the globe talking on the phone – maybe we should think about a new logo?

If you’d like to see the [...]

Thupr’s content creation workshop at Social Media Week London

Last Friday I spent the day at the rather fancy Charring Cross hotel in central London (fancy to the point where they play classical music in the corridors – and not just as background music in a TV show to illustrate how fancy the hotel is). I was there for a Thupr event that ipadio’s [...]

Protests in Egypt: Internet blocked, but ipadio still works

This is absolutely incredible. As you’ll have seen on the news protests are currently taking place in Egypt against the 30 year old Mubarak regime. Apparently now internet access there has been “completely shut down“. It’s still possible for journalists to get news out though using ipadio – because ipadio works over the normal phoneline. [...]

The twist is that the participants [...]

ipadio 101: How to use our basic functionality

Though the ipadio blog is full of tutorials, one thing we’ve not had before is an utterly basic tutorial – how to use ipadio from the very beginning when you first register.
So what I’ve done is put together what I’m calling “ipadio 101″ – that should tell you everything you need to know. It’s available [...]

British Handball in the 2012 Olympics

Congratulations to ipadio users British Handball – it was announced last week that their team will be competing in the 2012 London Olympics.
Obviously this is exciting news as it’s not just any old Olympics they’ll be competing in, but one on home soil. Here’s hoping they continue to phonecast updates on how their training is [...]

Haiti: One Year On

Tomorrow, January 12th, marks exactly one year since a devastating earthquake struck the Caribbean island nation of Haiti. At the time, ipadio played a small role in helping out – five international aid charities including Oxfam, The Red Cross and Save The Children all used ipadio to call in updates and briefings on the ground.

FourTunes Favours The Brave

A new music podcast has recently joined ipadio – The FourTunes podcast. The format keeps things short and sweet – every day presenter Aaron showcases four unsigned bands for your delectation, as he says he has a “burning desire to promote quality unsigned music artists, in a manufactured chart music world” – can’t argue with [...]
