My BBC Arabic Interview

May 31, 2005 – 11:04 am |

I wanted to wait till it was broadcast, but well I couldn’t hold it any longer, lol, last week, I was interviewed by the BBC Arabic Service. Wow…

It was about Arab bloggers and blogging in the Arab world. The talk was about blogging in general, how I started blogging, how I choose the topics I talk about, why I blog in English, if there were any common characteristics between bloggers…etc.

It was really nice, although I was a bit tense, I mean it’s the BBC for God’s sake, lol…

The interview is for a new program called BBC Xtra that should be aired in early June.

Eman, my wife, was interviewed too, and so was Haitham.

It’s great to see that more attention is being given to Arab bloggers. I hope the attention continues to grow.

    Haitham, yeah I wonder who else was interviewed. There are so many people I have in mind who I think should be interviewed.
    Anyway, I hope they interviewed some bloggers who write in Arabic like Serdal for example.

    Nurhan, thank you :)
    It was awesome, I was so excited by the thought of it and when it happened I got so tense and nearly panicked, lol.
