Love this photo. So telling and while no women seem to be present in the foreground, you can see some in veils in the background of this circle. I found a number of interesting photos of the dramatic events from Friday and the weekend on Flickr by typing in El Tahrir Square as there are some excellent recent photos from people who are there. http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=El+Tahrir+Square&page=3
I also have liked the Guardian's coverage as they have a running blog that updates every minute with text, twitter posts, photos and even some audio coverage from Chris McGreal from this morning that I really liked listening to:

go a long ways down on the page to find it and listen.
Have been to Cairo myself in 2000 and very interested to return some day to this revitalized city and country. I'm also very glad that I can see material from people there on the ground. Know my brother in Palestine and my friends in Jordan will be interesting to talk to about their perspectives on all this.
