Claudia Chez Abreu [es] writes about the upcoming Twitter.do meet-up. They still haven't decided on a date, but they are working on a spreadsheet to estimate number of participants who would show up and the best date for the event. The plan is to go bowling, so if you are a twitterer in Dominican Republic and would like to catch up on all the details, subscribe to the @dominicanos twitter feed, then go to Claudia's blog and sign up!

Arianna writes at the Dunlaps in San Salvador blog [en] about the process to get a driver's license in El Salvador at 15. In this humorous article in English she mentions the requisites and gives us a tip on what to do if a driver sees a dog on the left side of the street while driving (a question she failed on the written exam).  She also mentions how it isn't a pleasure for her to drive in the crowded city but that nevertheless, for San Salvador, it is culturally important to know how to drive at an early age.

La Gringa points us out to English language blog “I owe so much”, where one man writes in English about his experience trying to get out of credit card debt in Honduras. He writes bluntly and honestly about how much he owes and how he got to that amount, how he now drives his girls to school to save on school bus fees,  how he has set up a VOIP business for extra income, and bit by bit he pays back his debt.
