Our friend, Mujahideen Ryder, has just announced a new project he has been working on: UmmahWatch.

“UmmahWatch is a digital media democracy. As a user, you participate in determining all site content by discovering, selecting, sharing, and discussing the articles and videos that appeal to you”.

As pointed out by Mujahideen Ryder, UmmahWatch is the Muslim version of Digg.com, Del.icio.us, reddit.com and other similar social browsing/bookmarking sites. As regular visitors to these sites, we have to focus in on news articles or links to sites relating to Islam. We are quite certain, this was one aspect that initiated the UmmahWatch project. Now with UmmahWatch, the scanning is done in a free-form manner.

After a quick registration, we wondered if there was a bookmarklet for easy submission. And yes, a bookmarklet is readily available on your profile page. We tested the bookmarklet with ease. We are looking forward to the expansion of UmmahWatch (since UW is in beta following the Web 2.0 formalities).
