It's goalball time once more!
The "Road to Beijing" passes through Malmo, Sweden, this weekend, with eleven nations meeting in the Malmo Lady Inter Cup 2008, and you can hear every game live and for free!
The finest lady goalball athletes will be competing over a three day period, each vying to be the Champion, and give themselves an extra boost before the Paralympics in September.
The action begins at the FIFH-Hallen in Malmo on Friday morning local time (which for those of you on the East Coast of the USA is in the very early hours of Thursday morning), and goes on though to the completion on Sunday afternoon local time.
The live audio broadcasts performed by the Audio Network are done through the auditorium chat rooms of Accessible World, and video feeds are made possible by the marvelous efforts of the organizing team in Sweden.
Listening is free of charge, and you do not need a password. You do need to install a small program called "Talkcom" that opens up the chat room for you, but this take seconds even on a slower computer, and definitely does not contain anything that would harm your computer in any way.
If you have listened before, chances are that you already have the program still sitting on your computer, and you should not be prompted to download it.
Here is how to get set up to listen.
You will find a link below that will take you to the page where you can listen live (this will open up in a new window, so you can still read the instructions on this page).
http://conference321.com/masteradmin/room.asp?id=rs5affc3cfa191
If you have listened to our audio commentaries previously, click on the link at the bottom of the page that says "Click here to enter the room" - it will ask for a user name and password. You do not need to enter a password! Just enter in your name.
If you have not listened before, then click on the download button to download the small (and safe) Talkcom software. The software will prompt you to either "run" or "save" - click on "run". The install wizard will install the "TC conference client" - the 'Sunday name' for Talkcom, and will tell you when it is finished. When it has finished, click on the "continue" button, and then you are ready to click to enter the room.
If you have any problems, please contact me here at this e-mail address.
See you there!
Bill.
