Secret Dubai was one of the most popular independent blogs in Dubai, United Arab Emirates in the 8 years of its operation, from 2002 until 2010. Launched in 2002 and written by an unidentified expatriate, "Secret Dubai" generated a significant following in the Middle East Blogosphere until the UAE's Telecoms Regulatory Authority (TRA) in the UAE blocked the website. In 2007, it won a Bloggie award for Africa and the Middle East. The blog's last entry date is August 2010.
