This is to let you all know that I have done my first Lebanese Bloggosphere Summary in Global Voices Online
You can read it here; it included links to The Lebanese Bloggers, Lebanese Political Journal, Across The Bay, From Beirut To The Beltway, Abu Takla, Lebanonesque, Arch Memory, and to yours truly.
Please read it and give me your feedback if you have any. You can comment here if you think it should be just between us (like for instance if you think that the summary wasn’t good ;) ) , but if you wish to comment to the readers of GVO, you can do it under the summary over there.
Like I said before, if you’re a new Lebanese blogger please let me know you exist by emailing me at Mustapha at beirutspring dot com.
Next Sunday, I’ll be hopefully writing an introduction to the Lebanese Bloggosphere. All suggestions are welcome. Also, Bloggers, if you can add a GVO link to your website (like the one found here on the right), please do, we’d be most grateful.
Hello, my name is Mustapha and I blog in The Beirut Spring about Lebanese society and politics. I started in February 2005 after the killing of P.M. Rafik Hariri.

Good Job. It was well written and reflected what is going on in our minds.
thanks for representing the blogosphere. great job!
Great summation!
Your posting is giving me a meta-understanding of what is going on: what are the trends? The next question to ask is, why?, which is what all of us are already doing.
I like it that bloggers are making the news instead of following/commenting on it.
You’re doing a good job of showing what we offer that the media does not. There are so many holes to fill, I hope we are closing some of the gaps Nahar, Safir, et al don’t.
Are you going to be able to post a graphic of the week? Since you make them frequently, maybe we could vote on which one makes it into the weekly posting?
Then again, will most of the Global Voices readers get what he picture is about: for example, they don’t even know who Saad Hariri is, let alone placing him in a Godfather context (which Lebanese find very funny).
BTW, did you know that your graphics get ripped off the site and emailed around?
Good summary, and to the point. Thanks Mustapha.
