IA-Connections began in 1997 with it’s first site for LadybugPress, which it still produces. IA-Connections also produces the TeenTalkNetwork.com site for teens. On the LadybugPress site, they offer a wide variety of on-demand internet radio programs such as Emmy Award winning news anchor Chuck Englund’s Inside Books, Reel Reviews by Christine WhiteRaven Olinger, and more. They are producers of quality audio exclusively for Internet use.
On-demand radio is radio that can be listened to, at any time, via most computers. The site requires “real audio”, a free audio player that ca be downloaded from the site if it is not already installed on the listeners system. This means that if the listener is unable to get to their computer when the broadcast is made available, they can go into the archive library and listen to it at any time!
