Best blogs of the Arab World: New Blogs Added to toot!

January 27, 2010 at 12:24 pm · Filed under Arabisms, Geek Culture & Tech

Like I already mentioned… it has been that exciting time of the year again. Exciting for me because we at toot add new blogs to our network of best Arab blogs out there, and that means more fantastic reads for me every day.

What is new on toot? A lot! There’s something for everyone. We present you with the best that the Arab blogosphere has to offer.

Let’s see… What are you into?

Are you into Arabic food?
Well, I have good news, we have a fantastic Arabic food blog that will make you salivate. Check out Syrian Foodie.

Are you into Arabic pop-culture?
Well, it’s your lucky day. We have TONS of great blogs in this category. There’s Plus 961 and Baba Ghannouj et la Zeitoune from Lebanon. There’s 360dewan, Fourth Ring Road, and Buzzberry from Kuwait.

How does it feel like to live in the Arab world?
Of course, we already have several blogs on toot that portray the experience, but our new additions include: American Bedu, Susie’s Big Adventure, and Muscat Confidential.

Architecture and urban planning are your thing?
re:Kuwait and Interruptions will please your mind.

Art, Design and Fashion are awesome in Arabia.
You will LOVE this list. Check out:

Politics. Politics. Politics.
Don’t worry, we didn’t forget about that either. Not exactly political, but this lawyer is very interesting: Abdulrahman Allahem. There’s also Qunfuz, Under My Olive Tree, and Maysaloon, among others.

Technology-Geeks from Arabia.
I love the geeky blogs :) Check out: Anas Online, Arab Crunch, and Freeware Genius.

Of course, we didn’t forget opinion and journal blogs.
From the opinion side: Saudi Woman, Beirutiyat, Dhofari Gucci, House of Curiousity, Palordinia.
From the journal side: This Limerick Called Life, Living in KSA, Maram Meccawy, Quest For the Right One, Chocolate Mints in a Jar.

Thanks to everyone who submitted their blogs. You can still submit yours, but I’m afraid we can’t have any more additions for this phase. We will have another phase of additions sometimes later this year, so if your blog rocks, please sumbit it.

    Couple of days ago I found some hits coming from itoot. When I checked it seems my blog was, FINALLY, added to itoot. I was so happy. But I didn’t receive an email from the itoot team about my blog being added. Nor it was mentioned in your post here. Is there a way to know if my blog (jaraad.wordpress.com) is being added to itoot? Thanks

  • http://www.ohseriously.wordpress.com Dee

    just check the blogs, yours is here so i’m guessing you got added :)

    Thanks Dee, Roba and itoot team. I am on itoot. That is great news.

    Updating :P Yes, those are some really good ones Roba. So… thanks! American Bedu, that’s probably one of the best expat blogs out there right now. (Get well soon girl!) 4th Ring Road, now that’s one bad-ass header! It switches from day to night! Sometimes a sandstorm also gets thrown in there between the two. Sweeet! ;)

    When you click on the link to “syrian foodie” blog, it takes you to the “Egyptian chronicles blog”. I had to google the foodie blog and found out it’s a really good one. Thanks for sharing the list :)

  • http://Freewaregenius.com Samer Kurdi

    Thanks for listing my site – http://www.freewaregenius.com in your list.

    I have a request though to fix the URL used twice above. Somehow you have stumbled on the wrong URL for the site. The link you are using on this page is specific to my old host and will be taken down soon. The correct URL is http://www.freewaregenius.com

    Regards,
    Samer
