A Different Drummer


The National is alive!

Check out the world's newest newspaper at www.thenational.ae

We closed the first edition last night. It has been an incredible couple of months, and felt great to finally hold a lovely looking broadsheet newspaper in our hands this morning.

I have a couple of stories in the business section today - "UAE is the Spam Capital of the Gulf," "Etisalat Tops Saudi Telecom," and "Muxlim.com Named 'Most Promising'"

Will have some interesting stuff up over the next few days, so bookmark The National and drop by when you can....
