A Real Armenian Blogosphere
Tamar Palandjian over at Armyouth emailed me today saying that she hopes to arrange a meeting next week with local Armenian youth in order to encourage them to start blogging. Hopefully such a move will represent the start of a real Armenian blogosphere within the Republic and not something artificially created from outside. This was what I wanted to do with Indymedia Armenia but nothing was ever arranged by them, so I’m glad that someone else is taking up the idea through the Civil Society Institute.
That would be great, but I want to know what a real Armenian would be like? Armenian who’s last name ends with ian or yan or յան? Or Armenian who has always lived in the Armenian land, and who’s great grandfather did not let some turk tax-collector to rape his wife or his daughters?

I was thinking more of Armenian citizens who want to create a better country for their children and their children’s children and who are willing to discuss a variety of opinions and issues to reach that goal.
