Just a quick pointer to an article at the BBC website entitled "African bloggers find their voice," which features both BlogAfrica -- a terrific source of ideas, opinion and insight from Africa-focused bloggers -- and our own Ethan Zuckerman.

"It can be a bit overwhelming, but it's a great overview of the conversations taking place in and around Africa," says Ethan Zuckerman, one of the people behind BlogAfrica, on his own weblog My Heart's in Accra.

Zuckerman, a resident fellow specialising in the impact of technology on the developing world at Berkman Center for internet and society at Harvard Law school in the US, is also one of the main drivers behind Global Voices - an even more ambitious project to follow interesting blogs from the whole world, with a focus on countries often overlooked by the mainstream media.
