We’ve already covered the satellite radio kind of service, FlyTunes, in the past. Those that liked it, will be glad to know they’ve recently tripled its channel offerings from 50 to over 160 channels that cover all genres of music, as well as talk, sports and local weather. On the other hand, iPhone/iPod users which are reluctant to try new services, maybe are now convinced to try out FlyTunes.
The new music channels on FlyTunes include top rated Radio Paradise, SmoothJazz.com, RauteMusik.fm, and 53 music channels from 181.fm. In the talk category, FlyTunes has added NPR, TheScore.com, and local weather in the top 15 U.S. markets…
Interesting figure that should convince you to give FlyTunes a try, is that average FlyTunes iPhone user listens eight hours per month according to Comscore — that’s over four times the amount the average YouTube user streams per month. Wow!

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
