Basically , experiments on automatic identification of Arabic dialects in Arabic blogs. Besides, other experiments on topic (automatic) identification in blog posts. All my reports will be found in the <a href="http://arabicweblogs.pbwiki.com/">Arabic blogs wiki</a><br /><br /> Furthermore, the Arabic blogs dataset will be extended. I will be working the coming months on enlarging the number of blogs in the dataset. I am planning to build a dataset that can represent 50% or more of the Arabic blogspace.<br /><br /> I have another project in mind combining Arabic blogs and Arabic online news, I will talk about this project in my next posts.<br /><br />Salam!<br />Wael.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1692482326808720839-7266111497555777708?l=arabicweblogs.blogspot.com'/></div>Waelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17929506135060054076noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1692482326808720839.post-32598753672040052402007-08-05T11:58:00.000+02:002007-08-05T12:08:57.362+02:00the Arabic blogs datset consists of approximately 12.000 Arabic blogs containing a number of posts that exceeds 120.300 posts.

As far as I know, Maktoob has the second biggest collection of blogs from the whole Arab world. This collection is estimated to count more than 7000 blogs. the totality of blogs in Maktoob are in Arabic however it is very possible that some blogs could contain posts in English or French.<br />This blog service is accessible at : <a href="http://www.maktoobblog.com/">http://www.maktoobblog.com</a><br /></li></ul><ul><li>Blogger dot com is one of the oldest and famous blog service providers.

Blogger dot com gives the possibility to store all posts in UTF-8 which is a universal type font that interprets Arabic font correctly. Moreover, Blogger dot com might be hosting more than 3000 Arabic blogs. Most of these blogs have posts in English, Arabic and French.<br />Blogger dot com provides blog services at <a href="http://www.blogger.com/">http://www.blogger.com</a></li></ul><ul><li>Arab word press is a recent Arabic blog service provider.
