ADDED TO THE BLOGROLL
The new, somewhat meandering, official U.S. State Department blog. This site has potential, if not squelched by unhappy seniors, to bring some of the 21st century’s Web 2.0 interactivity into the insular world of Foggy Bottom. We’ll see how it evolves, right now they seem to be experimenting. Perhaps Colonel Kilcullen can give his former diplomatic colleagues a blogging tutorial ?
I just noticed that State’s ” conservative underground” has reactivated the once highly popular and long dormant Diplomad blog, absent the former Chief Diplomad. Regardless, I’d like to say welcome back to the blogroll to the Diplomadmen.
Wandered over there via a recommendation from Michael Tanji. Mr. Wilson is off to a stronger start as a blogger than is the U.S. Department of State.
CSIS Commission on Smart Power Blog
The awkwardly named group blog of the CSIS Commission on Smart Power that sort of reads as a CORANTE site for foreign policy wonks. They should get Nye and Armitage to write an occasional post ( Nye has guest-blogged at Paul Kretkowski’s Beacon)

Hey Mark,
You should also take a look at Daniel Sekulich’s Modern Day Pirate Tales which focuses on piracy around the world. He’s done two series on piracy in the Malacca Strait and Somalia. It’s a recommended read from the Human Security Review blog.
