In Hossein Derakhshan's English weblog on Iran gefunden:

Here is the quickest website I've ever built: http://www.blogsbyiranians.com

It's a directory of almost all of the English weblogs written by Iranians around the world, many from inside Iran. Making it came to my mind the other day when I was writing that piece for the Varsity and I thought there was no separate directory for English blogs by Iranians. So I bought a domain right away and set up a website using wonderful http://www.Blogrolling.com.

Hossein Derakhshan schreibt in einem Artikel ebenfalls über den Impact von Weblogs in der Iranischen Gesellschaft:

Tens of thousands of Persian weblogs now attract millions of readers everyday, but the language barrier has prevented the world from seeing the real Iran and its people through them. A quick study of the contents of these weblogs displays a whole new set of attitudes and values among Iranian young people, absolutely different with what mainstream North American media tries to sketch.

New generation of Iranian young people are more tolerant, self-expressive, independent, and individualistic than ever. In an increasingly anti-American--and to some extent anti-Western--region of Middle East, where fanatic Islam has the most fans among middle-class population, Iranians embrace extremely different values than their neighbour countries, and surprisingly, than their fanatic leaders.

Sehr, sehr empfehlenswert!
