Our Week In The Web: April 3, 2015

Hey gang! Big news on the Internet. We — and our friends @WBUR — are now using Twitter player cards. We're working on the best way to use the service (it lets you play audio files directly in Twitter clients / feeds) but we're very excited to have the opportunity to lower the barrier between links we share and audio you hear. For now, be excited. you can directly play audio when we tweet a link to a broadcast (provided the audio is posted for said broadcast) and you don't have to leave the stream. Feel free to let us know how you feel in the comments here, or @OnPointRadio!
