New Feature: Regional Briefings

| 2 Comments

"Winds of War" is popular as a quick update on the "stuff that matters" in the War on Terror. But what about the wider world? Winds of Change.NET is going to begin featuring monthly Regional Briefings on Tuesdays & Wednesdays to provide a fast, convenient summary of significant and interesting events shaping these areas. It's a good cross-promotion opportunity for specialist blogs with real background in a specific area - though we also accept talented non-bloggers. The June roster is:

  • June 4 (Yesterday): Robi Sen's South Asia briefing covers the Indian subcontinent and the ASEAN nations like Indonesia, Malaysia, et. al.
  • June 10: Randinho's Latin America Briefing. Yes, I know he leans leftward. I'm interested in a diversity of viewpoints for our briefings.
  • June 11: AfricaPundit's Africa Briefing.
  • June 17: Gweilo's China Briefing.
  • June 18: Hushoor's Korea Briefing.
  • June 25: Zogby's Roadmap Roundup deals with Israel and its neighbours.As you can see from the selections, this is about merit and quality above all. So, if you think you can do a great job with any of these briefings, now's the time to write in to Joe and tell us why.

    I'm also wondering what interest would be like in Regional Briefings for Europe (incl. Russia); and Central Asia (the "-stans" and Afghanistan). Do you want these? Is this something Winds of Change.NET should be doing? Let us know via the Comments section.

    I never get to read about the Stans. Yes, by all means, tell me what's going on in the Stans.

    Coverage and analysis of Chechnya.

    Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:

    *This* puts text in bold.

    _This_ puts text in italics.

    bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.

    To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
