Very nice story (French) to share. But I looked at the YouTube video and something felt wrong. I finally realized what it is: It’s really weird to use a cellphone camera to take a video of a message being sent by a carrier pigeon, and then upload that video to YouTube. Why not send the message using a cellphone in the first place?

Great report by Tamara Qiblawi on the new Lebanese online ventures taking advantage of faster internet. I wish them luck, but unless the problem of online payment is solved, these guys are still facing an uphill struggle.

Lebanon’s Hezbollah has managed to resist Israel’s invading army — the region’s most powerful armed force — by successfully deploying guerrilla tactics in what is known as an asymmetric war (where one side is much more powerful than the other).
