Here’s my website – a link from Spain Scoop would be good.
A new planet has been discovered! Read all about it!
Not sure if the #15M and Indignado movement would be of interest to readers here, but my blog http://spanishrevolutionnotes.blogspot.com/ is covering it in English. Be forewarned I have a tendency to use the F word.
Great. I did look at your blog but didn’t notice any way to ‘follow’. Sounds interesting, the 15 grapes for M15. I also wrote something on M15 for Shareable.net, you can see it here:

Great write up on the Barcelona Occupiers! I take back my snide comment from a few days back, you guys are really gonna tell the whole story — how refreshing in Spain! I have tweeted it to my Occupy friends back Stateside, I am sure it will get passed around.
To follow my blog http://spanishrevolutionnotes.blogspot.com/ simply click the “follow” option in the top left corner (next to the search bar).
P.S. Here in Madrid, the Okupa protesters shout, “Que pasa, que pasa, que no tenemos casa!” What does the chant sound like in Catalan?
