From Tina - I frequently check the stats for Daniela's blog to see who is reading it. I do this because it is fascinating to see who has found it, but also to make sure it is not getting linked to anything unsavory on the internet (no evidence of that, so far....)
This week I found it is being followed in Iran. With it being such a closed society, I was very interested to find out more. Below (if you can read it and link to it) is the translated version of a blog in Iran which seems to follow disability blogs. That her blog could be affecting lives there is very touching to me and to Daniela.
Iran blog
This weekend she reached a major goal - to have the blog be read in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. It is now read in 45 countries as well. Amazing!
To those of you with disabilities in Iran - and across the globe, we identify with you and wish you all the best for productive and independent futures!
Tina and Daniela
As a student (2005), I was able to see the vibrant Afghani online community. (The place there is called AfghaniChat: don't know if it's still working, but lots of great info in German, English, Arabic and Farsi). Foreign Correspondent, too, had great information on people with disability in Afghanistan.
ReplyDeleteAnd the two Persian languages in Iran (they have different names, like Norwegian).
I admit to wondering over the Iranians also.
The person who is talking is "Elm". And there are of course several summaries.
However, the America's Got Talent website to which Daniela was linnked leans on the side of having too many ads/promotions.
