Thanks to Marilyn Gosz, Robert Battison, Lars Bevanger, Carina Rodriguez Sciutto and Alec Yeh for getting in touch with their suggested blogs. It's really encouraging to see that Blogworld is catching on. Whether you've heard it on the radio, seen on TV or saw the blog, please do tell us where you've heard about Blogworld and see the end of this post to know how you can get in touch.
According to Carina Rodriguez Sciutto, she started her blog to share her city with the world. she features photos of a tram journey in Santa Teresa.
Lars Bevanger says Chris Richardson's blog, , is his favourite at the moment. Chris Richardson is Christian but not religious. He's decided to live 2010 according to Islamic teachings. In Chris blogs about his first ever Friday Prayers experience.
Alec Yeh is an American gap-year student currently in Senegal. He started to chronicle his experience there. , he marvels at the Senegalese TV culture. (I've emailed Alec to find out the translation to the title of his blog when he gets back to me I'll update you)
Robert Battison's blog, reminds me a bit of the 91Èȱ¬ World Service's World Have Your Say. In this very short , Robert poses a questions to all the law abiding citizens of the world.
And finally, Marilyn's blog is exactly that;California in French. Marylin is a Californian who decided to write about the sunny state in French. Why? Well this is what she told us in her email suggesting the blog.
"Californie en francais" features blog posts about California, written in French by a Francophile (me) who wants to practice her French language skills and bridge some borders at the same time. I was shocked, several years ago, to discover that the U.S. had pulled funding for its cultural center in Paris. So, in 2006, I jumped in and decided to take an individual approach to cultural sharing and collaboration.
