The Green Briefs of NiteOwl=Iran_Translator

Josh Shahryar AKA NiteOwl AKA twitter.com/Iran_Translator on twitter has been doing an impressive job by collecting as much confirmed truth as possible from the sea of tweets. Translators have now joined the effort, to provide a number of languages. The project is also morphing from a few day's effort into something longer-term.


The Green Briefs can be found at iran.whyweprotest.net and newsvine.com, but here is a list of all of them (and I'll try to update this list).
