I’m writing this list on Thursday night, a few hours before major new demonstrations demanding the ouster of President Mubarak are supposed to begin. There is no telling what might happen, and I thought I’d prepare a quick “The Best…” list with information on what has happened until now. I’ll add more tomorrow (and have already done so Friday morning) I’ll keep updating this post.
