BBC Arabic World Service

I forgot to mentioned that I was interviewed by BBC Arabic World Service a couple of days ago.

As I understood, the interview was for a new program called BBC Xtra and it was about Arab Bloggers and Blogging in the Arab world. Basically we talked about my own experience, why I blog, how and why I chose certain subjects, the characteristics of a blogger, etc…

If the sound quality of the recording is good, it will be broadcast early June and I will keep you updated on the timing.

The good conclusion of this interview is that I realized that some other Arab Bloggers were interviewed too. That means that Arab Bloggers are getting more attention now, specially that the written media already gave us some attention.

I believe and hope that this attention will increase, and this would only be possible by more quality Arab Bloggers in all subjects.

All the best Bros & Sis.

Update I: I just came to know that Mahmood was interviewed too, but on a different subject.

Update II: Apparently MMM and Eman were interviewed for the same program. Cooool… :-)

    hey congrats man! I wonder if these people can provide us with transcripts to put on the blog when they're done?

    Thank you Mahmood and Roba :-)

    Mahmood, as for the transcript, they promised to do their best, but it seems they are not used to such thing. maybe when they realize the power of blogging (which in fact looks already the case), they will be more fixable.

    Anyway, as I said, it is a good start ;-)

    Cool…

    Eman and I were interviewed over the phone by the same people too a few days before we came to Jordan.

    Same stuff, our experience, blogging, how we started, what we blog about, if there is anything bloggers have in common…etc.

    It was nice :)
    We didn't write about it on our blogs though. I don't know why.
    I'll go write about it now :P

    Are you telling me that you and Eman are in Jordan.?! I envy you ;-)

    Hey, I'm planning go into my first vacation since three years, next July. I hope to catch up with you guys if you are still there. Also I'm excited to meet with some of my Favorite Jordanian blogger friends…

    Anyway, it is great to hear that you and Eman were interviewed too. I'm wondering who else of those I (we) know were interviewed. But it looks that we have been watched :-D
