Blogging about Burma

The tight controls on freedom of speech and the virtual impossibility of operating as a reporter in Burma has meant that getting out information about what's really going on on the ground has been difficult.

As the international press continue to follow the story, the internet has been one route that HAS been used by Burmese bloggers and websites giving their own view of the latest developments from within the country itself - despite the efforts of the military dictatorship to close down cybercafes and mobile phone networks.
