All over the world people are monitoring unfolding events in Iran via the internet, where an apparently decisive election victory by the incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is being challenged on the streets.
Although there are signs the Iranian government is trying to cut some communications with the outside world, citizen journalism appears to be thriving on the web.
Here is a selection of popular links, many of which have been written from a particular point of view but – when taken together – provide a wide range of perspectives.
BBC NEWS has the links — blogs, flickr, Picasa, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook.
As Tom Johnson, the blogger formerly known as FunctionalAmbivalent, posted on Facebook this morning, he:
feels like he’s watching a revolution on Twitter and Facebook. Iran is erupting, and unlike Tienanmen Square, the authorities can’t hold the information in. Too many cell phones with video; too much redundant web access. Who knows what’s going to happen? No one. But we’re going to see it live, unfiltered by the media. This is amazing!
