Comment call: which are the best non-English language blogs?

Well, I’m flattered to be included in Paul’s list – but of course, there are many other german (online) media blogs that are worth reading. Here are some of my favourites:

Medienspiegel – mandatory if you’re a journalist in Switzerland.

Medienlese – covering mostly Swiss and German online media.

Stefan Niggemeier – Niggemeier is one of the founders of the media watchblog Bildblog, this is his personal blog.

Indiskretion Ehrensache – Thomas Knüwer, who is also a reporter for the newspaper Handelsblatt, is one of the few German print journalists who also blogs.

Beobachtungen zur Medienkonvergenz – An irregularly updated, but truly excellent Swiss blog about social media and technology convergence.

I’m sure I’m forgetting some, but it’s a start…

Luis Santos already has done part of the job, and his Atrium – Media & Cidadania was in my list too. But there are other portuguese written media blogs from both sides of the Atlantic:
Travessias Digitais by Hélder Bastos;
Contrafactos&Argumentos since 2002 writing about cultures, economy and politics, technology and social impacts, media, social contamination, weird stuff… Mas Certamente que Sim! , by Paulo Querido;
Comunicamos, a great blog run by media students and teachers from UTAD;

Código Aberto;
Jornalismo e Internet Gjol Bloga collective blog written by a group of researchers in online journalism at Bahia University ;
Libellus , a blog kept by Ana Brambilla;
Journalism is dead, a corrosive media blog from Brazil;
Carnet de Notes by André Lemos, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Communication, Federal University of Bahia, Brazil.

Gabriela Zago has also a great blog about online media and journalism;

This comes in handy because i was about to make a
list of bloggers to participate in a blog carnival,and i’m thinking about inviting a few from this list. Still, there are many others that were left out, and i’m sure i forgot some.

PS: To be flattered is to say the least, but i agree with Nico.

Hey, thanks for remembering. There is a big list of portuguese bloggers, all of them communication reaserchers – some of them very good.

PS: Someday I will send you those questions that I told you some months ago… Still trying to find some time…

i sent a list but i think akismet got it…..

@Alex – your comment rescued from Akismet, thanks.
@Philip – I know Kristine – as she writes in English I didn’t include her. Am planning a future post on bloggers who write in English outside the US/UK/Canada/Aus/etc.

I fouled up the HTML code, I’ll try to repost:

In portuguese:

Webmanário, by Alec Duarte (Brazil). Mostly about journalism. About social media and technology, Tiago Doria’s is the one I recommend.

Dutch groupblogs are

http://www.frankwatching.com (social media, long articles about how and why)
http://www.marketingfacts.nl (about online marketing and often breaking the news about new projectes)
http://www.dutchcowboys.nl (about online marketing and media)

Dutch blogger and new media enthusiast Erwin Blom made an overview with his favorite Dutch blogs by individuals. I think this covers a good part of the spectrum of blog that are writing about new and social media

I’m sure I forgot to mention some of the best blogs. If other Dutch readers read this, please ad more blogs.

http://journalinks.wordpress.com/ is a Belgian blog with articles in Dutch, often writing how factual data is (mis)used by journalists, the author of this site has also an impressive collection of interesting links for journalist : http://www.journalinks.be/

Thanks for including my personal weblog netzjournalismus.de but you’ll find much more stuff at http://www.onlinejournalismus.de which is a group project. Those two sites tend to get mixed up because of their similar names, sorry about that.

I also recommend http://www.websehen.net (German language, about TV and the web) and http://www.denieuwereporter.nl/ (Dutch).

Interesting and communicative, but would be suffering with something more on this topic?

Excellent site onlinejournalismblog.com and I am really pleased to see you have this this post.
I am crrently working in the south of france looking at property for sale, having fun in the sun and bookmarking everything that I find interesting on the net (including onlinejournalismblog.com of course !)
It has taken me literally 1 hours and 51 minutes of searching the web to find you (just kidding!) so I shall be pleased to become a regular visitor from now on

Thanks
