Podcast – Interview with GVO Editor: Is technology helping us, or endangering us?
I conducted this podcast with Silly Bahraini Girl, who is way more geeky than she looks and sounds. She (Amira) currently works as the editor of the Middle East and North Africa region on Global Voices Online, doing daily round-ups of the regional blogosphere. In the past, she served as a news editor for the widely read Gulf Daily News in Bahrain.
If you’re interested in blogging, human rights, freedom of speech, and unnecessary sound effects then you might enjoy this.

Shhh. I’m traveling tomorrow night. They always pull me aside to the immigration line and insist on calling me a Ma’am. I like how the questioning officers all wear camouflaged suits. Why? They’re not behind plants or anything. Do they think we don’t see them?
No dear.. it isn’t YOU they are hiding from.. It’s ME! (this is where my ego starts to act up again
Best podcast EVER! You people have a talent of taking something serious and turning it into something very amusing to listen to. Applause! (oops I shouldn’t be interrupting bwahaha)

I seriously think we should do more interviews.
So far at Mideast Youth we have featured:
An Omani student
An Afghan activist
A Bahraini university student
A Saudi DJ
A Lebanese Christian
Two Moroccan students
A bunch of stupid students (in the podcast entitle “when ignorance becomes funny”)
See it all here.
I wish people would help out with these! They’re really fun to create.
“I’m filthy rich bitch and you’re just jealous.”
I’ve listed this as a favorite quote on my Facebook. You crack me up.
Too funny!

Seriously Amira, What about those matches exactly?!

Brilliant!
Thanks Deborah! She’s now gone.. phew!

Oh shut up I’m sure you’re weeping over my departure. I’m jetlagged as hell.
