Eduardo,quiero hacerte llegar este comentario sobre tus ultimos articulos para GV. A través de GV sigo la blogosfera en frances, portugues y arabe. Celebro tu dedicacion a este gran proyecto.
SIN EMBARGO, me parece q muchos de tus últimas entradas son irrelevantes, poco representativas y demasiado cubiertas por los medios masivos cuya voz atronadora es una onda expansiva con gran poder de destruccion.
Me refiero a:

Soy argentino y vivo en Kinshasa, DR Congo. Intento mantener firmes lazos con mi querida sudamerica y lamento sinceramente encontrar q las voces que amplifica GV hablan de iphone? halloween? daft punk?
Espero encuentres el lado constructivo, por eso te contacto.
Saludos cordiales
Nico
Dear Eduardo,
Thank you for the link again. I appreciate the work you do, despite such backhanded and unfair criticism. Any light shed on the life of culture of Mexico, whether high or low, I believe is ultimately useful in understanding the interconnectedness of our various societies. Thank you again and best wishes.
