Dr Patrick Dixon ran a three hour Web TV link in 1997 from the LBC studio (ITN London) with regular slices of the programme streaming from this site, callers joining Dr Dixon on the show by videolink from their PCs and sending e-mails. Three times as many sent e-mail questions and comments to the show as phoned in. This is the face of interactive radio. Of course the whole thing could have been run remotely using Dr Dixon's own virtual radio studio at Global Change Ltd which allows him to be virtually present on any radio show, anywhere in the world as a studio guest, at a few minutes notice, several times a week, and all that without leaving his desk. The net sound is usually CD quality but is muffled on this recording due to a studio problem on air.
