New blogs and blogroll

As anyone who looks down a bit and to the right might notice … I’ve added a new section to my blogroll, consisting of “A-list and activist” Muslim blogs. These belong to what I consider the “top” bloggers in the community: regularly-updated weblogs by people who are also involved in community work outside their blogging, i.e. their blog is not just a personal site. I decided to do this in response to new blogs by Osama Saeed of the Muslim Association of Britain, entitled Rolled Up Trousers, and by Imam Suhaib Webb (hat tip: Izzy Mo). I thought the likes of Umm Zaid, Umar Lee and Abu Iman Squires needed a section apart from the gender-based sections which were getting rather long.

    Asalamualaykum, I see our very own Abu E’s made it to your A List ;-)!! Nice blog by the way. Wasalam

    Thanks for the link Yusuf. I’ve been meaning to get in touch with you for a while, seeing as you seem to be the most pre-eminent British Muslim blog out there.

    BTW why is it that there aren’t more, particularly from prominent individuals? In the short time I’ve been blogging, it’s pretty clear this is a very important medium.

    PS would be grateful if you could change my link to http://www.osamasaeed.org seeing as it’s more future proof than the typepad one

    The way forward is to create a community blog. have a look at progessiveu.org

    website is run using an open source content management system called Drupal (see drupal.org). you’ll need a company to host the site. they use one in Vancouver, Canada called Bryght (Bryght.com ),Drupal is pretty easy to configure once it’s installed at your host.

    So how about it yusuf ?
