I'm leaving for Jordan in a couple of hours, for a weekend workshop of Palestinian and Israeli journalists at a hotel on the Dead Sea. I know I promised to write about Ramallah, and I will. I will also post about the weekend workshop.

To see a bit of what I've been up to lately, go visit onejerusalem.com, Global Voices Online (which I neglected for a loooong time) and the Zlango blog. 

Besides all that, I'm now part of a team that's putting together a very cool, edgy guide to Tel Aviv (more about that as the project evolves) and I'm getting up to speed on the Israeli election campaigns in anticipation of a lot of running around with a certain foreign correspondent. There's also a good chance that I'll be writing about the elections for a well-known European newspaper - as soon as I know for certain, I'll update.

Part Three of Jill's memoir is up, by the way, and it just keeps getting better and better.

And in case you stopped following the Israeli anti-Semitic cartoon contest, there's lots of interesting new stuff on the site  - especially the gallery of entries.

And finally, Stephanie's post about reality on the ground is required reading for anyone who wants an insightful perspective on the complexities of life in Israel.
