The Vigilante Journalist [1] posts eyewitness accounts and photos from areas of conflict in Kenya. And Kenyan Emergency [2], written by a London-based Kenyan, "mother of three, student of international politics", provides daily roundups and commentary, and analysis, from a range of Kenyan and international sources. I recommend both of them highly.
