Adding links to other sites

See new postings on what we’ve been doing. Links to the blogs of everyone in class are now found on the right side of the page.

Noor Shija, foreign desk editor of the Uhuru newspaper, lists a good number of sites he says he will visit regularly in the future, from the Inter Press Service news agency to Pambazuka News which provides sophisticated feature stories by African intellectuals about broader issues going on in the continent.

Jiang Alipo compares Tanzanian media websites and picks up her favourites, Tanzania Daima among them. Also Gladness Munuo says she will go on reading Tanzania Daima online, not only because she enjoys the stories but also because the website is structured in a very simple and reader-friendly way.

Another topic today was to provide links from the postings to the original sources or websites mentioned. Generally, that was not a success. Maybe we will have to repeat a bit tomorrow.

But for viewing pictures, I recommend the blog of David Shija, TV producer at Radio TV Tumaini. The last posting includes photos from the nasty loss of Liverpool against Everton in the English FA Cup yesterday night. David’s links are also functioning well and he’s added the links to all participants’ blogs. Well done!
