Internet access continues to grow in Morocco, and with it the Moroccan blogosphere is expanding as well. Though many Moroccan bloggers write in French or Arabic, an increasing number use English - a reflection of the language's growing popularity here.
Because of the risks associated with expressing critical views - particularly on national politics - Moroccan bloggers tend to tread carefully. But in the expat communities in France and elsewhere, many have embraced blogging in order to share their unfiltered views of their homeland. (Their key role in the 9% movement is a recent example.)
In addition, a dedicated group of non-Moroccan bloggers - both in Morocco and abroad - also contribute to online discussions of events in the country.
