Juan Cole's Informed Comment blog, which is the world's best English-language read on Iraq, is more user-friendly than ever. Now, he's posting his items separately, and they have headlines. So you or I can seasily scan thru the voluminous amount of info he puts up each day to find the topic that really catches our eye, and then link to the exact item we want to send our readers to.

Like this one, today, on the time it'll take to organize elections in Iraq just to write the drafters of the new Constitution... not to mention the time it'll take 'em to write it, then organize an adoption process.

Trouble is, nearly everything Juan posts is really worth reading.

Still, thanks so much Juan, for the new user-friendliness!

(Talking of my linkees, anyone know what's happened to Salam of Dear Raed fame? I guess I read somewhere that his house was "searched" by the ever-friendly US military. I hope he's not sitting in some hell-hole of a stinky jail with a vomit-stained bag over his head... Come to think of it, I hope no Iraqis are in that situation, but I suspect that some hundreds of them probably are.)

No, no - not stinky jail; Salam was in a nice London hotel all last week being interviewed about his book (e.g. Friday's Daily Telegraph). He said somewhere (not in Telegraph) that he was "missing Baghdad like hell".

Juan Cole has also added a google search capability to his site, hallelujah! It's possible to use it to do research, now...
