Dear Aaditeshwar, Congratulations to Gramvani, Nomad, One World and Radio Bundelkhand for putting this together. I am sure this website will bring the CR stations closer as a network. It looks nice, and is simple to access. Would the experience-sharing blog have the provision for CR stations to write in different languages (which could also be translated)?
So, we all now we have three websites now to maintain among us http://www.crforum.in/; www.communityradioindia.org; and http://www.crindia.in Let us try and differenciate the content and purpose of all three so that each one is used to its optimum level. All the best, Kanchan On 23 March 2011 22:35, Aaditeshwar Seth <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear all, > > A few of us have put together a website to showcase CR stations in India: > http://www.crindia.in > > We feel this will bring more attention to the CR movement, and also help > people understand what community radio is all about.
