Building the Syrian blogosphere: Syria Planet


A group of Syria's most important bloggers have built a site which should give the world a street-level view inside Syria.

Syria Planet automatically republishes every post made by more than a hundred Syrian bloggers.

Ayman - one of Syria's first bloggers - is behind the project. Sinan, Ayman, and Yazan also take much of the credit for the work.

The incredible project will finally let the world read what Syrians are saying - unmitigated by SANA, Associated Press or the BBC.

Welcome to Syria Planet.

The creators think they've scooped up every Syrian blog on the net - but many more are being launched every day - go to the site to register your blog.
