If this isn't a sign of the times, I don't know what is. Because overwhelming traffic this morning took down the site (English version would have been here), I clipped a pic of what Ahmadinejad 's first entry looked like, as well as the news story on Yahoo.

Fun fact #1: Mahmoud invites visitors to vote in his online poll:

"Do you think that the U.S. and Israeli intention and goal by attacking Lebanon is pulling the trigger for another world war?" the president asks visitors to the site, offering them the choice to vote 'yes' or 'no'.

Fun fact #2: Mahmoud's blog uses RSS feeds and AJAX and runs on a (illegally acquired?) Windows .NET server.

I think it's really funny that he has polls on there. Do you think the results influence his leadership? LOL.

Can you imagine the vitriol that would land on the site if Bush had a blog?

Crazy funny. Too bad the site is down; I would have posted some questions!

Darn - I am not even listed on his Favorite Links. Neither is Clipmarks. Wonder if we should at least inform him of clipmarks?

No thank you! LOL I think he'd suffer here along with Bush.
