Moroccan bloggers are free

Filed under: Blogs — taamarbuuta @ 5:42 pm

Exciting news this morning - the Agence France-Presse (AFP) published an article on blogging in Morocco and as it turns out, Moroccan bloggers have far more freedom than their North African and Middle Eastern counterparts (not to mention far more blogs than the former).

As a Morocco-related blogger for the past two-odd years, I would have to agree with the article - Moroccan bloggers really do have significant freedom in what they choose to write about, as evidenced by some of the posts seen at maroc-blogs.com.

Needless to say, congratulations blogoma!  May you continue to generate interesting, exciting, and thought-provoking posts, and may the freedom to express your ideas continue.
