One word: awesome. Cambodia has little access to the Internet, so hopefully this gives more Cambodians a chance to connect with the rest of the world. It's exciting when I learn about things like this, because there is so much potential to empower the people who will directly benefit. What this is essentially doing is giving a voice to people who otherwise would not have that opportunity. This is the direction we need to be going. I look forward to checking out more Cambodians' blogs. I want to hear what they have to say--not their government or media conglomerates--to understand a worldview I have not been exposed to.
