How I Keep Up With the News

February 8, 2012 · Mustapha Hamoui

What’s the first website you visit when you wake up?

Mine had to be something where I can, at a glance, get a feel at what’s going on in Lebanon and hopefully get inspired to write new posts. This is why I created a sort of Lebanese “news dashboard”, which is part twitter feed (I used the big fat twitter list), part blog posts (Lebanon blogs I’ve subscribed to across the years), and part news feeds from Lebanese websites and newspapers in all three languages .

I found it surprisingly useful and it made me discover articles I wouldn’t have otherwise read. So I thought of sharing it with you, and a couple of days ago, I gave it a domain name.

So with no further ado, I introduce beirutspring.info , and I hope you find it as useful as I did. It’s still a work in progress, so if you have any comments or feedback, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
