Blogging to Build…or Burn Bridges

November 30th, 2006  |  by Imnakoya  |  published in Blogosphere, Darfur, Sudan

The “[tag]We Blog for Darfur[/tag]” (WBD) project is receiving some attention from the mainstream media, the first stoplight comes from Mark Jones, the global community editor of Reuters, who wonders “if its wise to start a new blogging initiative or focus on existing ones.”
