The WHO just declared that the swine flu outbreak is now at a phase 5, one step away from being declared a worldwide pandemic. During these times of crisis, citizen reporters and bloggers are essential to getting alternative analysis and information of what is going-on in their cities and regions. I am calling on all English speaking bloggers, working out of Mexico, to unite. I volunteer to put the list together of all of you who are out there writing-blogging, podcasting, or using your social networks such as Facebook or Myspace, or YouTube, to provide information on what is happening in Mexico. I will use my radio and TV shows to promote our work. Please send me a brief, very brief description of your blog, who you are, and where you are. You can write to me at anamaria@anamariasalazar.com or post your information on this blog. Bloggers Unite!!

ResponderBorrarHello there,
ResponderBorrarMy name is Brian Hall and my blog address is http://www.stevenbrianhall.com. I have been living in Guadalajara, México since May 2008 and will be reporting on my blog tomorrow morning about the effects of the flu down here in Jalisco, as well as about how I feel the Jalisciense government is lying to the people here about the confirmed cases of Swine Flu.
Thanks,
Brian
My name is CancunCanuck (Kelly), a Canadian woman living in Cancun. I've been blogging about the flu at www.cancuncanuck.com and tweeting (under my nick) news stories. My blog has a pretty big list of English blogs in Mexico, but to narrow it down to some others who are blogging about the flu, Gary in Mexico City http://garydenness.co.uk/ and Simon at www.insidemexico.com have been posting good stuff.
ResponderBorrarThanks (I'm a fan). :)
