Iranian Student Protests

I had a somewhat random conservation with an anti-authoritarian leftist Iranian guy who had recently spent a fair amount of time in Tehran.

He mentioned that blogging was a popular (and risky activity) among regime oppositionists. I’ve read that their are estimates of around 80,000 to 100,000 blogs happening in Iran. Here’s some videos on the recent student protests against Iran’s president Ahmadinejad.
