I received a press release from WEEI.com and now you can take WEEI anywhere thanks to a new iPhone and iPod Touch app. Not only can you listen live to WEEI, you can also access previous interviews and make your feelings known through Twitter. From the press release:
The new application, designed by FlyCast, has multiple functions for users, including the ability to listen to WEEI anywhere at any time. The live audio also has a jump back feature, where users can rewind up to two hours on live audio content. The WEEI application also offers on-demand content, so Boston sports fans never have to miss a segment or interview that airs on the station. In addition, while listening to WEEI, the new application allows users to access Twitter, so they can share their thoughts on Boston sports.
“This is a must-have iPhone application if you are a Boston sports fan,” Tim Murphy, WEEI.com Vice President and General Manager said. “The ability to listen to WEEI programming anywhere, anytime, and control the audio like never before is a huge breakthrough. Combining all this with access to Twitter truly gives us a cutting-edge, interactive application that gives users a full 360 Boston sports experience.”
The WEEI iPhone application is the first of its kind, allowing users to unmatched access and control of live and on-demand radio, while having the ability to use Twitter all in one interface. WEEI is innovating the way fans access and consume sports talk radio unlike any other station in the country.
It’s another part of WEEI’s strategy to have multiple platforms, radio, internet and now the iPhone.
