New Website for Christian Family Radio KOLU
After months of behind-the-scenes work, we are finally able to debut Christian Family Radio’s new website! Our goal is to make it more up-to-date and with information you can use.
To that end, we have spent a lot of time preparing our information, or “databases”, to enable you to access information about the programming on Christian Family Radio.
A modern radio station’s operation revolves around computers, which are tasked with keeping the station on the air, but not necessarily to provide the listener with information in a form he or she might find useful. So, before we could provide this information, we had to write software to “translate” the information into something that would be more useful.
Since KOLU’s automation software is “in house”, that is, designed and maintained by yours truly, we had to first upgrade this software to place the information in more modern databases to make it more accessible. Once that was complete, the next task was writing more software to reformat this information and place it on the web.
Finally, we were able to design the web site itself, which involved a steep “learning curve” on newer web technologies, including WordPress, on which this site is based.
We still have much information to add to provide the information we’d like to have available to you. Feel free to use one of our forms for your comments and questions.
We hope you will enjoy browsing this site and continue to listen to Christian Family Radio. May the Lord bless you indeed!
