Sudan: The Passion of the Present

Yet More Modifications to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds" and "Zimbabwe-Related RSS Feeds"

The feed for Pachodo.org, the sidebar feed for Save Darfur's (new) blog, another feed for MSF-Canada's blogs (for the new "Vakaga Sky"), and the feed for Kevin Funk and Steven Fake's "Scramble for Africa" have all been added to the big, big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds.  Also, the feed for Save Darfur's daily-news section has been switched back to the original one, as the site has returned to using that feed for its latest updates.

In addition, a tag-based feed for Save Darfur's blog and the feed for "The Great Zimbabwe" have been added to the almost-as-big batch of Zimbabwe-related RSS feeds--and some additional author-specific "Comment Is Free" feeds have been added to both batches (Martin Luther Agwai and Emmanuel Jal for the Sudan batch, and Morgan Tsvangirai for the Zimbabwe batch).

Separately, for those who had been following the feeds that were included in the batch of RSS feeds of news from Africa (before I revamped it, several weeks ago), I've since come across feeds for Madagascar Online, the Mauritius portal KotZot, Mauritius' Le Défi Media Group (including for its English-language "News on Sunday"), the Somaliland site Harowo, the Somaliland Forum site, the Eritrean site Awate, the Egyptian Organization for Human Rights' English-language site, Google's official Africa blog, the Southern African Legal Information Institute, and the African Centre for the Constructive Resolution of Disputes. (Updated, on Sunday, to note a basic podcast feed from Hirondelle News Agency.) - EJM

Even More Additions to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds"

Additional/alternate feeds for both Team Darfur's site and the IRC's "Voices from the Field" blog have been added to the very, very big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds.

Separately, for those who may have been following the feeds that were included in the batch of feeds of news from Africa (before I revamped it, a few weeks ago), I've since come across the personal blog of Lagos-based freelance journalist Will Connors (who has been doing some work for the "New York Times").  (Updated originally because I've since also come across feeds for the Uganda Village Project's blog, Camfed, FACE AIDS' blog, FORGE, PlayPumps International, the African American Islamic Institute, and EarthWire's Africa section; updated further, on Sunday, to note the [apparently hidden] feed for Orphans of Rwanda's blog; updated still further, also on Sunday, to note the site feed for "Lundin for Africa" [affiliated with the Lundin Group of Companies]; updated yet again, also on Sunday, to note the general feeds for the "African Executive", "African News Switzerland", and Chido Makunike's "African Agriculture" blog, as well as the video feed for the AfricaFront site; updated even further, also on Sunday, to note the feed for AMREF; updated [hopefully] one last time, also on Sunday, to note the feeds for the Centre for Democracy and Development and Abaana.) - EJM

Still More Additions to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds"

The feeds for the Southern Sudanese Voice for Freedom site and Zoulcolm X/DZA's blog have been added to the very, very big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds.

In addition, if you haven't already, you may want to read Richard Just's recent "New Republic" essay/multiple-book review on Darfur (and Darfur-related activism). - EJM

Yet More Additions to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds"

Yet another tag-based feed for the official Reuters blogs (this time, the "Lopez Lomong" tag on the "China"/"Olympics" blog), the "East Sudan insurgency" news and blog feeds for AlertNet, and the feed for Barbara Youree's "Sudan Faces" blog have all been added to the big, big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds.

Separately, don't forget about the "Switch Over to Darfur" and "Darfur Olympics" sites. - EJM

Even More Additions to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds" and "Zimbabwe-Related RSS Feeds"

Various category/topic-based feeds from The Gambia's "Wow" portal/news site have been added to both the big, big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds and the almost-as-big batch of Zimbabwe-related feeds; in addition, the feed for Mia Farrow's site and the Justice Africa Sudan site have been added to the Sudan batch.

Separately, for those who may have been following the feeds that had been in the batch of feeds of news from Africa (before I revamped it recently), I've since come across feeds for the Ethiopian-American site "Tadias", the "Times of Swaziland", Lesotho's "Public Eye", South Africa's "Limpopo Informant", and The Gambia-based Media Agenda.  Also, like Kenya's "Nation" (mentioned in the previous post), the co-owned "East African" has a new site; unlike the old "East African" site, the new one does include feeds. - EJM

Still More Modifications to "Sudan-Related RSS Feeds" and "Zimbabwe-Related RSS Feeds"

The feeds in the big, big batch of widget-based, Sudan-related RSS feeds relating to the official Reuters blogs have been streamlined, in an effort to both avoid duplication and make sure that all posts are represented; this means that the feed for the "Darfur" tag on the Reuters Africa blog has been removed (as the related posts still overlap completely with the ones for the "Sudan" tag) and that the similar feed on the "Global" blog (which was added only a few days ago) has been changed from the "Sudan" tag to "Darfur" (as there is now a post that was filed only under the latter tag).  In addition, some category-specific feeds for Drima's blog (in addition to the already-included primary/overall feed) have been added.

Separately, a category-based "Zambian Chronicle" feed and a podcast feed for VOA's "Studio 7 for Zimbabwe" (one of several apparently new podcasts for VOA's various "English to Africa" programs) have been added to the almost-as-big batch of Zimbabwe-related feeds--while the Google News feed there has been changed from a basic, query-based feed to a new, topic-based version.  (That new version is related to a new Africa-specific Google News topic, and related new nation-specific topics for Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Uganda [all in English].)

And, for those who may have been following the feeds that were part of the batch of RSS feeds of news from Africa, before I revamped it a few weeks ago, I've since come across feeds for "Building Bridges with Rwanda", Cameroon's "Entrepreneur", Cameroon's "Eden Newspaper", Sierra Leone's "Awoko", Uganda's "Weekly Observer", and Zambia's "Lusaka Times".  Also, the site for Kenya's "Nation" has been revamped/relaunched; among the site's feeds now is one for the new Africa-news section.   (Updated because I forgot to mention the feeds on the Tunisia Online News site.) - EJM
