Axis of Evil – Newly in RSS
August 14th, 2006Ok, this is not a political blog. But since I’ve known about Berkman intern Caroline’s thesis subject – the Iranian blogosphere and the public -, the following is both big and scientific news. :-)
NZZ Online, one of Switzerland’s best news site, broke the news today that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has started his own, RSS-enabled weblog at www.ahmadinejad.ir. The blog is available in Farsi, English, Arabic, and French. (It seems to have interoperability problems with Opera and Mozilla, so you might want to open it in IEX.)
His first post is an autobiography, enriched by his well-known anti-american statements.
Speaking of enriched – the blog supports RSS, but not Atom. Is that an attempt to take the heat off his government in the current nuclear controversy? Let’s keep fingers crossed.
P.S. I’m sorry, the word-play works better in German …
