Any good radio station in LA area?

When I was in SF Bay Area, I LOVED KFOG.

KFOG is very different and unique. They don’t play Nickelback over and over again.
I came to love Duncan Sheik and Damien Rice through KFOG’s “Artist of the month” even before they became famous.

The shows on KFOG tht I loved:

• KFOG’s 10@10 : “10 great songs from one great year”
• Live From The Archives – The Show : “the very best of KFOG Private Concerts, Live Concerts, and Broadcasts”

And everything else, literally…. I miss. :cry::cry::cry:

It’s been 2 months in So-Cal and I haven’t found a good radio station yet. (And of course I hate Star station)

Does anyone want to recommend me one? I want something like KFOG….

From Wikipedia to Wikia

Cashing in on Wiki-ness (Fortune)

Whereas Wikipedia aspires to be a neutral reference tool, Wikia’s business plan is to capitalize on opinion. It aims to have articles and discussion groups on any subject under the sun.

And while it deploys the same technology as its successful cousin, Wikia is intended as a freewheeling forum for all kinds of topics – from Star Wars to pet diabetes – with argument and advocacy welcome.

“Wikipedia is the encyclopedia,” says Penchina. “Wikia is the rest of the library and the magazine rack.”

Wikia 를 요리조리 살펴본 내 생각은, 커뮤니티를 제대로 아는 사람들이 만들고 있구나 하는 느낌.

• Wiki 를 아는 사람, 활용해 본 사람들을 대상으로 하면서 Wikipedia 가 사용하는 Mediawiki S/W를 사용하고 있다
• abusing 문제를 최소화 하기 위해서 Scratchpad Wiki Labs 라고 초반 Wiki 들의 incubation 공간을 만들어 놓았다
• 이 커뮤니티는 Wiki 의 정신을 그대로 이어 받기 때문에 웹 어디서나 자유롭게 접근이 가능하다. 로그인 등이 필요가 없고 모든 검색에서 찾아 올 수가 있다 (다음의 카페 같은 곳이 좀 본 받아 보았으면..)
