Make Yourself Heard On Open Source Radio
January 4, 2006Tell your story to the World today!
Here’s the post Haitham has made just today, so this is your chance, contact chelsea quickly and yes I too would like to know if you’re going to do it 
You are invited on a public radio show!
Here comes another great news. I was contacted by Open Source Radio, and they are searching for you. As an editor at Global Voices, they asked my advice and suggestions as to what bloggers in the Middle East/North Africa use skype and would be interested for interviews.
Since I know (I hope I’m wrong) that skype is not very popular in this part of the world, I suggested that instead of me suggesting bloggers, let’s try to make them show up voluntary. So here is the official invitation:
Greetings,
I’m a producer for the national radio show Open Source, www.radioopensource.org. We broadcast out of Boston, MA, USA.
We’re starting a new project, “Blog Stories.” The idea is to interview bloggers, via skype or phone, throughout the Middle East. These will be introduced on our website and then eventually broadcast on our show. These will also be available for podcast.
I’m hoping to collect compelling personal stories from bloggers, the story behind the blog/blogger. And of course we also want to capture the political, cultural modd of the blog and the regions from which the blogger writes.
As for format sometimes the interview will be edited down to 3-5 minute monologues. Other times our host, Christopher Lydon, will interview the blogger and the audio interview will be a dialogue.
Please contact me if this prospect interests you.
Many thanks, and kind regards, Chelsea
Thank you a million, Chelsea!
Guys/gals, please do not hesitate to make your voice heard. And it would be great if you can repost this invitation on your blog.
C’mon, don’t miss it, this will also give you few more readers. Well, a lot more than few. Open Source Radio is one of the most popular projects online these days, and I’m sure your blog and opinions will be popular soon
PS. Don’t forget to let me know when you make your interview. I’ll be glad to hear your it.
