Mich
Café turned two last week.
When
I pressed “Publish” on that first post on June 16, 2010, I didn’t know what I
was getting myself into. I didn’t realize I was embarking on a journey of
passion that would absorb every minute of my days.
I
was reading so many interesting and diverse posts by friends and strangers all
over the world and wanted to be part of this group that had so much to say and
so many ideas. I also wanted to be part of the growing blogosphere in Lebanon aggregated
by my friend Liliane Assaf (known as @FunkyOzzi on Twitter) on one
of her several blogs, Lebanon Aggregator.
So
on the blog’s second year, I was thrilled to be featured in RAGMAG, one of
Lebanon’s most popular magazines.
Liliane
started Lebanon Aggregator in 2006 to group all the “URLs of blogs written by bloggers,
be it Lebanese or not, writing about Lebanon and living in Lebanon or not!” It
now has more than 400 blogs listed.
Every
month, Lebanon Aggregator picks three blogs around a certain theme to be
included in RAGMAG magazine, which has
dedicated two pages to the Lebanese blogosphere titled “World Vision.”
RAGMAG
is a social, educational and entertainment Beirut-based periodical. Published
by Gina Gabriel and edited by Fida Chaaban, it covers art, theater, film,
nightlife, music, cuisine, fashion, health and more.
And
now, 196 posts later, Mich Café has made it on the pages of the June edition of
RAGMAG!
Everywhere
I go, everything I see is now in relation to the blog, how it can be shared and
what I can say about it.
With
so much to read on the Internet, I thank my readers for dropping by Mich Café, coming
back and commenting. You truly make it all worthwhile.
Thank
you to Liliane for her kind words, Lebanon Aggregator and RAGMAG magazine for
making it a great Blog Birthday!
