The Future of Radio

Like every other form of mass media, radio is undergoing a lot of change. 
Changes in technology, changes in content, changes in how individuals use 
the medium.  Some have predicted the end of radio, but as the first real 
mass medium, it is surprisingly resilient.  But how you listened to radio in 
the past may not be the same way you listen to it in the future.

During February's Radio Waves discussion, we'll talk about how radio has 
changed in the last decade, and how it will change in the years to come. 
And maybe wax a little nostalgic for the radio of our past.

Please join us for The Future of Radio.
