Thanks to our good friends at R&R (www.radioandrecords.com), there will soon be an explosion of music charts on Yahoo! 360 in the coming months. The following radio formats have been picked up, along with the individuals who will host the charts on their personal blogs:

1. Rhythmic (DJ Woody)

2. Urban AC (Steve Graham)

3. Country (To be announced)

4. Rock (To be announced)

5. Alternative (To be announced)

6. Hot AC (To be announced)

7. AC (Elizabeth)

8. CHR (To be announced)

9. Urban (Kerry Williams)

10. Smooth Jazz (To be announced)

11. CHR Weekend* (Freddie C.)

12. Smooth Jazz Weekend* (DJ Swing)

So far, DJ Woody, Kerry Williams, and DJ Swing have already set up their blogs, and Steve Graham, Elizabeth and Freddie C. are planning to do the same. Freddie C. will obtain his charts from the American Top 40 website (www.at40.com), and DJ Swing gets his from the Smooth Jazz Top 20 Countdown site (www.smoothjazztop20.com). As of today, the Country, Rock, Alternative, Hot AC, CHR Weekly and Smooth Jazz Weekly charts are up for grabs. DJ Swing posts his latest chart entries every Sunday, and Freddie C. will post his own every Saturday. The rest will be seen on weekdays, with the following schedule to be followed:

Monday: Rhythmic and Urban AC

Tuesday: Country and Rock

Wednesday: Alternative and Hot AC

Thursday: AC and CHR

Friday: Urban and Smooth Jazz

Saturday: CHR Weekend

Sunday: Smooth Jazz Weekend

Hopefully, within a few months music lovers will be able to check these very interesting blogs for progress on their favorite tracks. The goal is to get these complete charts up and running by the start of 2008. So far, we’re halfway to the goal, but eventually, we will get there!
