From the site:
We are entering an age where every citizen will have the means to speak her mind in a public venue. Weblogs are the voice of the people, connecting millions of individuals to their own audience on a daily basis. But what does this communication sound like?
Radio Vox Populi is a realization of the people’s voice, taking the content of the weblogs and broadcasting it back to the world.
