Burma Posting, Podcasts, Views…

11 10 2007

I have to admit I have been following the events in Burma for awhile with some interest.  I came across a posting in some of my blog crawling/reading adventures and thought I would post it here (see previous post).  It is a bit like email spam (which I normally can’t stand) that you try to get 10 of your friends to send for good luck but the message in this is far more serious…

Try searching google on the number listed in the post below.  An amazing amount of hits (and not just in English). 

On a related note the BBC does some excellent podcasts on current/world events as well as other topics that I’d encourage people to take a look at.  Specifically the documentary archive (found at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/podcasts/docarchive/ if you want to subscribe to it with iTunes, RSS or whatever) is very good including a piece on Burma recently (and I woudl expect more to be appearing as time goes on).  I’d also recommend the daily newspod download.  This is usually how I while away the time on the LRT going to and from work every day and it’s educational!!
