Cuba: Bloggers Gather In Spite of the Challenges
In spite of the challenges to connect to the internet, many Cuban bloggers are determined to post to their sites. Some receive a hand from abroad by sending their posts by email because many of the sites are blocked, which means that often they cannot see their own blogs after publication.
