Streaming Ashes cricket now world-wide

2013-12-04 Thread Stephen jolley
Hi All,

 

Cricket Australia has announced today that its live audio radio streams are
now available world-wide. For the first test the radio streams were only
available inside Australia.

 

Note that the radio streams are free so there is no need to subscribe as in
the case of the video streams.

 

You can find the streams from the Cricket Australia links on my website
http://members.optusnet.com.au/stephenjolley/livestreams .

 

Happy listening. Especially to friends outside Australia and the UK.

 

It may also be of interest to you that the current West Indies tour of New
Zealand streams are available from my page.

 

Cheers,

Stephen Jolley

Thanks much, Stephen.
Just a dumb question, I understand that I don't need VPN for Cricket 
Australia, however, if I have a VPN, would it work everywhere, for instance, 
Australia, UK etc or I need a separate VPN for each country?

Thanks!

Google Shaking Up Voice Recognition

2013-12-04 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hi!

Just been reading my local paper which has a technology section appearing every 
Thursday and one of the featured topics this week was the new voice recognition 
which is in beta found in Google Chrome.

I don't know how accessible Google Chrome is JAWS or Window-Eyes these days but 
I do know that it appeared to be reasonably accessible with NVDA last time I 
tried it which was a little while ago so perhaps things have advanced since 
then?

Anyway back to the point of voice recognition, if you use the search facility 
at google.com you can say something like Okay Google Search to activate the 
voice recognition system and then just tell Google what you're searching for, 
the computer will speak the results back in a summary and display them on the 
screen.

This facility is also available in several model of Android phone though I'm 
yet to discover exactly which one's though I suspect that the Nexus range - 
given that they usually get the most recent and updated versions of the Android 
Operating system - would be a fair bet for these features.

I have a Samsung Chromebox here so I'll be taking it for an update trip across 
the World Wide Web later on today and see if I'm able to use the voice 
recognition with its version of the Chrome browser.

Its been a good while since I've used Hotspot so I may not be up to Spec with 
everything Hotspot offers these days.

As I understand it you download the Hotspot Shield client for your operating 
system, install it and go from there.  I don't think you even have to create an 
account, that's only for the professional Hotspot Shield.

A web page should come up which guides you through everything, where you can 
select what country you want and so on.

Be aware that the free Hotspot Shield has advertising and times out after an 
hour.

Altec Lansing Expressionists Speakers

2013-12-04 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hi!

This is for people in Victoria Australia.

I've written about these speakers before and they're pretty good, they have 2 
line-in sockets, are quite small, are mounted on a desktop and go very loud! 
without distorting but then what would you expect from Altec Lansing.

They're now surplus to requirements so if anyone could use them then eMail me 
privately but here's the catch, you have to organise your own shipping, pickup 
or whatever, in other words, Come And Get Em before I throw them away.
