If you live in the Washington, DC area, you know WTOP is the #1 news & traffic station and now, you can stay in touch with Presidential Inauguration news by listening to WTOP using AOL's SHOUTcast Radio for iPhone and iPod touch. The efficient stream will run over EDGE, 3G and WiFi (remember, AT&T iPhone customers can access FREE WiFi at any Starbucks and DC has a lot of Starbucks locations).

First, download SHOUTcast for iPhone or iPod touch.



Second, use the Search feature in SHOUTcast Radio [App Store] and look for WTOP. Click the Favorite star in the upper right hand corner to make it a Favorite.

That's it! Make sure you tune in often to find out about street closings and other important news.

Now, you're downtown DC and need to get in touch with your friends and family? Combining AIM for iPhone [App Store] with AIM Blast, you can register all your Buddies then you can send one IM to multiple people at the same time. Found a table for lunch, send a mesasge to your AIM Blast group.



Finally, you're sitting in a Starbucks with your MacBook and you couldn't see the swearing in ceremony at the Capitol, you can watch it live on AOL News Inauguration section.

Enjoy and stay safe!
