Scour's MyCaster.com is Upgraded

Personal radio broadcasting site myCaster (http://www.mycaster.com) introduced version 1.2 of its myCaster software.

Released by search site Scour, myCaster lets people listen to user-created MP3 stations. It debuted in early November 1999, and over 40,000 DJs have put up their own stations.

Creating your own station is as easy as downloading the myCaster software and dragging and dropping mp3 onto myCaster.

The new version features instant messaging, better sound quality and custom "skins". Messaging allows listeners to chat one-on-one with the DJ.
