Freedom of Expression blog awards
Reporters Without Borders is calling on Internet-users to vote online for award-winners from among 60 blogs defending freedom of expression.
Many voices from Iran with its strong blogging movement, but more important, also voices from Zimbabwe, Nepal, Bahrain, North Korea and other dark spots. Seeing people making their case heard while under threat or oppression makes me happy again and again - what's a bigger threat to regimes than a printing press with worldwide reach? Of the 60 blogs presented, 25 are in English, and the awards could help to make all of them more well known.
