Welcome to SenerAkturk.com!

Hi!

This will hopefully be the first of many postings that will appear in this website in the near future. I plan to post, among other things, simple daily commentary on news items from around the world, reviews of my recommendable and condemnable movies and music, maybe even book and article reviews at an academic level. I follow news from the United States and Turkey on a daily basis, as well as news from Russia, Central Asia, Caucasus, and the European Union on a less frequent basis. New York Times, cnn.com, msnbc.com, San Francisco Chronicler, The Guardian (UK), Milliyet, Hurriyet, Radikal, Zaman, Yeni Safak, Vakit (all from Turkey), Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, and Pravda will be among the ones monitored. I do not intend to write this blog for the sake of it, but to interact with people with similar interests and similar or differing opinions. For now, this will be it.
