Burqa, Tweets and Minister

For the last few days I have carefully observed Georgian bloggers. Their number is boosting day by day and keeping an eye on all of them is a little bit hard task.

Svetlana Bolotnikova Wins Georgian Bloggers Over

"На Черном море вербуют блоггеров" (bloggers won over at the Black Sea) - scandalously titled article published last week in a trilingual online edition Georgia Times (http://www.georgiatimes.info).

მედია-ტერორი

შაბათს, საღამოს, მეგობარ ბლოგერებთან ერთად, რუსთაველის თეატრში  სპექტაკლს "შობის მეთორმეტე ღამეს" ვესწრებოდი.  უცებ უკანა რიგებში   ჩოჩქოლი ატყდა. ვისაც კი ტელეფონი ჩართული ჰქონდა, ახლობლები ურეკავდნენ.

იკითხავთ, ამჯერად ისეთი რა გაუშვა, რაც აქამდე არ გაუშვიაო. გაუშვა, თანაც... როგორც ჩემმა  კოლეგამ ირონიულად შენიშნა: "სულ წითლად და სულ ბოლშევიკურ ფერებში."

ჩვენს კოლეგაზე, ვახტანგ კომახიძეზე გასულ სიუჟეტზე მოგახსენებთ.

Who needs Real TV and what for?

Who needs Real TV and what for?

For a few days I was digging in the Real TV video archive and watched almost all TV stories and programmes. Don’t consider me as a masochist, it’s just my duty I force myself a bit to do.
