Moblogging (Photos) will fireup this blog again, starting from tomorrow. Blogging will be light for the next few days and this is due to my travel to Qatar to participate in the 2nd annual Aljazeera Forum (Arabic), which this year has the theme “Defending Freedom, Defining Responsibility.”

Susannah asked a question and I thought I would start this year by answering it here. She said:
It was good to hear you on World Have Your Say. However, presumably for reasons of time (or possible coughing?, although the interview asked the other two interviewees about the growth in the blogospheres in their part of [...]
Sorry guys for the outage. Some technical issue, resulted from load on the server. But guess what? As much as this is upsetting me, it is also evident that visitors to this site has grown so big in the last few months, in fact exceeding all the KPI’s that I expected.

All of a sudden, almost everyone in the Jordanian blogsphere is talking politics. While this is good, it is late.

Just came across a new Arabic ‘Blog-to-Media’ project, which is still on beta. It’s called ArabiskBlog. What they do is quite interesting. On weekly bases they publish a PDF Magazine called ‘Blogging Beyond Borders‘ (already three issues), of selected Arabic language Blog posts.
