Alaa in Google Blogoscoped

Google Blogoscoped has a post about Alaa, and the Googlebomb:

Googlebomb Campaign for Egypt Blogger

From Wikipedia:

<
On Sunday, May 7, 2006, Abd El-Fatah was arrested during a peaceful protest which spoke out on behalf of an independent Egyptian judiciary. His arrest, along with that of several other bloggers and democracy activists, spurred a protest by others around the world, some of whom created a new blog, “Free Alaa”, devoted to calling for his release from jail.>>

In the meantime, a Googlebomb campaign has been started to associate the word “Egypt” with the Free Alaa blog, so that people wanting to learn about Egypt hear of this case.
