We Are Iranby Nasrin Alavi
Portobello Books Ltd, 336 pp
This new book (published in 2005) by Iran-born and British-educated Nasrin Alavi (a pseudonym), and translated from the original Farsi, presents the views and musings of Iran's estimated 60,000 plus web bloggers. Topics range from the private thoughts of women behind the veil, the media, music and dancing, romance and living with the religious authorities. Blogs have exploded in Iran since 2001 when Hossein Derakhshan, a young Iranian journalist, created what was then Iran's first blog.

All but one of the blog sites mentioned in this post are inaccessible from within Iran due presumably to government censorship.
