Living the Revolution: Middle East

Adopt the role of an individual living in Yemen, Libya, Egypt, Tunisia or Bahrain and create a blog/diary/videoblog that captures what it is like to live through the revolutions currently underway in those nations. Also assume a point of view: pro-revolution, anti-revolution, question -- and consider the wide variety of people you might be. (What would it like to be a sidewalk vendor? What would it be like to be the current leader of that nation?)
