Israel’s Foreign Ministry is VBlogging

Posted on 02/25/2006 by Meryl Yourish

Israel’s Foreign Ministry has an excellent idea: A Videoblog about Israelis.

There’s Tamar Abramowitz from the Ministry of Immigration and Absorption talking about (and showing, but not nearly enough) the diversity of Israel: People from over 90 countries, speaking more than 50 different languages — yeah, that’s diversity all right.

This one talks about the Israeli inline skating passion: Ofer Weisglass combines a catchy Andrews Sisters tune with scenes of him and his skating club, ending with a short interview at 2:30 a.m. from someone who has just skated 35 km(!). Yikes. At two in the morning?

There are only a few Vblogs at the moment, but the site has just started. Calling all Israeli bloggers: Here’s your chance to literally show us your stuff.
