Tens of thousands of people took to the streets of Cairo Friday demanding change. It was mostly jubilant, but there was also tension. There's still a crowd in Liberation Square at this hour. Anderson reports live from the capital city tonight with the latest developments.

good night everybody
Love the "Notes of a Reporter" – very nice. Feels like I was with AC during the day.
Nice Reporter's Notebook. I haven't seen one of those for awhile.
Professor Ajami is always so honest and knowledgeable about what is happening. I always appreciate his appearances.
The Egyptians have certainly suprised me.
Good night Everyone! Sweet dreams.
i just got tears, just by watching Anderson's notes, good night.
Anderson, Ben, Ivan, Hala everyone from CNN and -all- journalists, reporters and photographers in Egypt: THANKYOU!!!
Hope you all are able to stay safe, and the promiss of protection by the army will be kept.
Everyone in Egypt the world is watching, I hope you will get elections soon!
And human right watchers can do their work.
Bloggers what an exceptional week to be with all of you, good weekend everyone
Anderson, thank you for reporting from Egypt. You guys have put your lives on the line to report the truth keep-up the good work but be very carefull. The Egyptian people are very brave souls may God be with them all. Love you notebook, you touched my heart with saddness but still with happness also.
Keep safe, until next week. Good night here and good morning there.
Outanding reporter's notebook. Poetic.
Fascinating and moving program tonight. Stay safe! I'll continue to pray for all of you.
Stay strong Eqypt. I will be watching with the rest of the world. Thanks for the coverage CNN and AC360 staff. Good night.
Best thing about Egypt... it is a lesson about the power of Internet and freedom of press... and its influence on people.
Democracy is the inevitable preferred choice of all. So, all dictators out there.. take notice! Transition out, or people will do it for you.
I loved the Reporter's notebook Anderson just did...
Oh, this is Anderson's "Notes of a reporter!"
So brave Anderson, Hahla, Ben. I am so glad they are safe.
Nice jon Anderson take notebook pictures, I know what they had horrible their lives, losing families,friends and children....... Image this.. I love it. Thanks Anderson!!!!!!!
@Mary: Thanks, and praying for your Mother as well.
Hi Anderson,
How old on average are the members of the Egyptian military? If they're reasonably young, I suspect that their sentiments may be more closely aligned with those of the pro-revolution protesters as opposed to those of the regime...
Stay safe!
Have a good weekend everyone, stay safe. Anderson and crew, please stay safe. You are greatly appreciated. Thank you for not backing down.
@Janis,
It will be interesting to see...
I don't believe that Mubarak can be trusted.
Stay safe... Wherever you are, God Bless
Thanks you and team for the great reporting you do. Stay safe and hope you can get out of there asap when it is safe.
Anderson, Are you returning home this weekend?
@Diane – thanks for the comment. I agree and i believe that is exactly what the protestors are demanding!
@Anderson, thank you for the reporter's roundtable, very interesting points of view by all.
i am sure i speak for many people when i say it is going to be a difficult weekend waiting for a monday broadcast – it is hard to wait a mere 24 hours – i know everyone there on the ground knows how to stay safe to the best of their ability – nite all
