Here's to ideological diversity in the blogosphere! Update: And here's another leftist Norwegian blog: Norvegia. Update 2: Browsing the referrer logs today is fun. Here's Political Communication, an English language blog by Raymond M. Kristiansen, who's active with the Liberal Party in Norway. Here's a post about official party blogs - the Socialist Left's Kristin Halvorsen got one - which I suppose is important, but doesn't excite me.

A lot of good posts, plus a brilliant name. (American conditions is a Norwegian newspaper expression of disapproval. As in: "Experts fear that if this trend continues, it will lead to American conditions".) 0 comments |
