Qatar Journal

One of the newer sites in Qatar is Qatar Journal. The site is run by Nigel, an IT enthusiast with plenty of experience in internet start ups. The site provides daily news stories about Qatar, and if you sign up you can have them delivered to your email address.

The stories are short but well written, and while there are no pictures the site is well designed and easy to use. There is no particular ideological or religious leaning – the site exists purely to provide news. It also aggregates feeds from other news sources including the BBC and Al Jazeera. Readers can get involved with the site, leaving comments on the stories, or submit their own stories to the editor here.

Obviously Nigel has put in and is putting in a huge amount of work, and the result is a very sleek and professional website, and a very welcome and unbiased source of news.

I’ll be posting a more in-depth interview with Nigel next week.
