<br>
The 2018 national convention is at hand, and everyone is eagerly <br>
anticipating the week of excitement and inspiration which lies ahead. <br>
Though we would love to see every member of our Federation family in <br>
Orlando, we recognize that not everyone will be able to join us in <br>
person. That's why we at 195 The Globe are proud to present the <br>
online stream of this year's convention, together with exclusive <br>
coverage you'll only hear on our station! As part of this coverage, <br>
we're giving you an opportunity not just to listen, but to <br>
participate in convention with us on air. Here's how you can listen <br>
to the stream and interact with the team:<br>
<br>
> Tune In: 195 The Globe offers a myriad of ways to listen to our <br>
convention coverage. Of course, you can access the stream in either <br>
your favorite media player or your Web browser by visiting <br>
<a href="http://195theglobe.com" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">195theglobe.com</a> and clicking on our "Listen" page. But you can also <br>
listen on virtually all devices you have! If you would like to listen <br>
on your smartphone or tablet, download the free TuneIn Radio app from <br>
the iOS App Store or the Google Play store, then search for 195 The <br>
Globe. If you want to enjoy convention with Alexa, you need only say, <br>
"Alexa, play 195 The Globe on TuneIn." On a Google Home, just replace <br>
"Alexa" with "Hey Google". If you have a notetaker or a Digital <br>
Talking Book player such as the Victor Reader Stream with ooTunes <br>
functionality, search for 195 The Globe and the stream will play. You <br>
can even listen with your touch-tone phone and on NFB-Newsline! Need <br>
more information, including our streaming schedule? It's all here: <br>
<a href="https://nfb.org/convention/2018/stream" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://nfb.org/convention/2018/stream</a>. Be sure to join us for the <br>
Pre-session Coverage listed in the streaming schedule, as we'll be <br>
airing interviews with various Federation leaders who play an <br>
important part in making convention possible, including some whose <br>
voices you might not have heard before!<br>
<br>
> Tweet In: Here at The Globe, we believe that if we want to give <br>
you the coverage you deserve, we must be actively engaging with you <br>
on social media. For that reason, we will be active on our Twitter <br>
throughout the week, highlighting our broadcasts, tweeting about <br>
special moments on the convention floor, and taking your feedback. We <br>
invite you to follow us on Twitter at @195_theglobe, and to monitor <br>
the hashtags #NFB18 and #GlobeOnAir. We will use both hashtags <br>
frequently to tweet about what we're up to in Orlando, including <br>
information about our special on-air coverage. If you want to give us <br>
some feedback or just say hi, feel free to mention @195_theglobe in a <br>
tweet and we just might read it on-air!<br>
<br>
> Call In: We're excited to partner with the Nation's Blind Podcast <br>
to give you an opportunity to share your convention memories, stories <br>
and feedback in a voicemail! Just call the podcast's feedback line at <br>
(410) 659-9314, extension 2444. Leave your message in the voicemail <br>
box, and you might hear your message on-air. Hosting a banquet <br>
listening party? Invite us in virtually! Heard something which struck <br>
a chord with you? Tell us about it! Have a special convention memory <br>
or magic moment? Share your story! Whether it's before or during <br>
convention, leave us your voicemail and let us hear from you.<br>
><br>
Whether you're in Orlando or participating online, we hope you'll <br>
check out what The Globe has to offer and participate in our coverage <br>
on the phone or on social media. If you have any questions about The <br>
Globe's convention coverage or would like to give us some feedback, <br>
please email Chris Nusbaum at <a href="mailto:cnusbaum@195theglobe.com" target="_blank">cnusbaum@195theglobe.com</a>. We look <br>
