Boston Progressive Talk Radio is gone!

Yesterday I was driving around and one of the kids wanted to listen to Air America (WKOX) from
Boston -- It is now a Spanish language station. The site "Boston's Progressive Talk" is now redirects to Rumba 1200AM. What happened?

Where O where can I get my daily Young Turks, Stephanie Miller and Ed Shultz in the Greater Boston/NH area? Damn this sucks.

How to have Firefox 2 add feeds to aKregator

Create a file named, say, /usr/local/bin/feed-akregator that contains this:


#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/akregator -a $1 -g "New, Unsorted Feeds"


And use that as the default application to add feeds in Firefox.
