Links of the Day

To get an idea of what is going on in the world outside the USA, I like to go abroad -- via the web, of course -- rather than read American reports. Global Voices offers input from countries as varied as Afghanistan, Cuba, Kenya, and Serbia, not to mention France and the UK. Young bloggers from the Middle East offer their insights at Mideast Youth; the writers include bloggers from Israel and Iran, Jordan, Algeria and other parts of this tinderpot region. Give it a try!
