This is by all means an end of an era. But as I wrote in The Cube (Lebanon’s most awesome book club), this should be a reason for celebration.

What’s Happening In Idlib?
A good AJE Video Report from inside the city. Glad to see reporters still braving the Syrian warzones and sending us good footage.

Joseph is not a professional legal translator, but he did a decent job.. (The original Arabic proposal is here )
Crime Wave and Inadequate Means Bring Tears to Lebanese Minister of Interior
I must say, minister Marwan Charbel has confused me like no other minister has, and that is saying a lot..
How To Recover From Disasters
Remember those Solidere before & after pics of Beirut’s recovery from war? The Tsunami-struck area of Japan has pulled off a similar recovery in just one year, and there’s an awesome set of pictures to prove it..
Le Commerce Du Levant has a Twitter Issue
After featuring Lebanese blogs, Le Commerce Du Levant, Lebanon’s Francophone business monthly has a new Dossier for its readers: Twitter in Lebanon.
It’s a good overall introduction to the world of Twitter, and I recommend that you check it out. But it falls short in certain places. For example, in the section where it’s recommending people for you to follow (Which they took partly from my own list and graciously credited Beirut Spring by name), they include the people’s names, what they do, and the number of followers they have. But they completely ignore the most important bit of information: Their twitter handle. Good luck trying to find the twitter handle of Michael Young on your own (It’s @beirutcalling)

Great infographic by Iyad..
