James Cridland’s articles

  • Late-breaking news today: radio tagging tool AirShr has closed. I’ve written about the product here.
  • This month’s Radio World International. I wrote the front-page story. Gunnar Garfors took the pictures. There’s still something nice about seeing your work in print.
  • Digital-first radio. It’s a good thing, in spite of what the press might try to say. My article for AllAccess; and as a podcast – find it in iTunes or wherever you get your podcasts.
