Jihad al-Khazin, one of my favourite columnists in the Arab World, has written a column about blogs and bloggers. The column seems to be the first part of a series. He writes about the history of blogging, and about some of the seminal bloggers such as Matt Drudge.

I’m still waiting to read the rest of the series, and I’ll tell you what I think about it later.

Now, the show, well-known for criticizing some government bodies that no one dared to talk about, will have even more space to criticize.
