Live from Abu Dhabi Connect the World takes you on a journey across continents, investigating the stories that are changing our world.
#themorningafterthenightbefore
For those of you who caught the inaugural show, I hope you'll agree we had a successful launch Sunday for Connect the World with Becky Anderson from Abu Dhabi. Â For those of you who didn't, can I suggest setting a digital diary "alert" weekdays at 7p local!
Onwards. . . With the first show in the bag, I'm mindful that the editorial narrative for our MidEast prime-time show must continue to provide this region with the best of the international news agenda – using CNN's incredible asset base of reporters around the world – with a focus, as news befits, on the stories that resonate here – in all their glory.
To that end, your input as viewers of the show and as consumers of the incredibly successful cnn.com/Arabic is absolutely crucial. Â You are part of "our" Global Conversation and I appeal to you ALL to get involved via the cnn.com site, on Twitter, on Instagram and on Facebook as we build our rundowns to reflect the news, views and opinion across the region.
And just so that you know: having been born and brought up with the vagaries of the British weather, I'm still getting used to waking up to blue skies and genuine smiles in the UAE! Â Believe me, this is ONE challenge that aim getting used to incredibly quickly!!

Putting it to the test, CNN's Tech Correspondent Samuel Burke took to the streets of London, to discover how effectively Cloak could help him disappear.

In the wake of such an atrocity, Kenyans have come together to heal, and emerge from their grief stronger than before.
Miss America: I expected the outrage
She was just crowned the most beautiful woman in America, but the racist backlash that followed her win has inspired Nina Davuluri to speak out. In this interview, Becky speaks with Miss America 2014 about how she handled the hateful comments, and her future plans.
Last day in space jam
After 146 days in space Commander Chris Hadfield and crew are back on earth. For his last day in space the Canadian astronaut sang David Bowie's 'Space Oddity' in zero gravity and posted the video on YouTube, but he had already been something of a social media star...
