Congratulations to Iranian blogger Hossein Derakhshan, better known in the blogosphere as Hoder. Yesterday he became a Canadian citizen, which means he can now travel much more easily than he could on his Iranian passport. Hoder was a tremendous voice of inspiration at the Internet & Society conference last year, and has become an active participant in the Global Voices movement, which we launched at the conference, and which seeks to further freedom of speech around the globe.
