Finally, I’m done of this template thing. I had put my touch on it, but there is a little problem. Every time I open the page, the browser status bar tells me: “Done, with some errors.”

Is this happining with you? Please tell me.

Anyone who can take a look at the code and tell me how can I correct the errors? Please help!

I felt that my old template was resembling other blogs, so I’ve decided to change it. I don’t like this new template very much. I think I’ll have to work on it in the next few days.

Inspired by Jason Shellen, and basically because I got nothing to do lately, I’ve decided to give my PC a Mac-over. I used an app called Object Dock from Stardock, and here is the result…

I’ve been using Windows since I was a kid but I did never love it, because I was a secret admirer to that lovely Apple. But since Apple’s products are pricey and it is really hard to find Arabic apps that works on Macs, I had to stick to Bill’s stolen OS ;) You can call me a Mac Voyeur in a Windows World!

I don’t know if you heard about this before. Anyway, I do really like it.

Try to put Your Blog vs. My Blog. I know you will be the winner!

Finally, after years of “What the hell is this?!” KACST, the government body responsible for Internet in Saudi Arabia, decided to clean up the blogsphere and they started with those hosted on BlogSpot servers.

As you may expect, this blog is blocked. My other blogs Yawmyat and Pharmaddict are also blocked while my Amr Diab blog is still available. It seems that Amr Diab is not interesting enough; so I should do something about it! But believe it or not, Muttawa is not blocked yet!

I’m not sad that no one in The Magic Kingdom can read my blogs anymore, because this will never stop me. I will start another blog for Saudis and this blog will still alive. I’m just sad that I’m not gonna be able to read some of my very favourite blogs. I will miss reading Zaydoun‘s and Salam Pax.

Earlier this year, KACST blocked the whole BlogSopt domain but they unblocked it few weeks after that. I thought that was it. They made a mistake, they corrected it and they will never do it again. But I was so wrong!

My favourite blogger Zaydoun wrote a good advice on this whole censorship thing: IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT, DON’T READ IT!!

No good, they blocked it already and they can’t read it :(

Don’t care about Sarah or the email wars? Here’s something interesting.

While I was reading some of my favorite blogs, I found some links to some different Saudi blogs.

The first blog is called “The Religious Policeman” or what we call here Muttawa. The writer concentrates on one of the evil government bodies here, but also about life in general in the “Magic Kingdom.”

The other one may not be interesting as the first one, but it’s also good. The first post for this blogger states it all:

Welcome to the Magic Kingdom. This is what I see and hear in the land of sand and black gold.

These two blogs will be one the top of my list as they are the most related to my blog. Credits go to Zaydoun, the best Arabian blogger out there.

When Google announced that they will give 1 GB of free space to every user for their new free mail service Gmail no one could believe it. But the other free mail services providers felt the earthquake and decided to expand the mail boxes of their users trying to prevent what seems to be a whole migration to Gmail.

But no one could offer what Google offered, 1 GB of free space.

Yahoo! gave their users 100 MB after what they called improvements even I could not feel any improvement but the extra space.

Hotmail are intending to offer more free space later this year giving their users 250 MB, but COME ON! This is nothing comparing to Gmail’s 1 GB.

Now, there is one real competitor to Gmail. His name is Maktoob.

Maktoob is an Arabic free web-mail service [also available in English] started few years ago and they worked really hard to build what they call the biggest Arab community on the Net. The last week, Maktoob announced about their improved mail service with 1 GB of free space for their users.
