Google Chrome .. yet another browser!


Status: Pre-release

so the first question that pops up here is that why do we need another browser! isn’t firefox solving the problems we had with IE? well Google thinks not! so the Chrome is their resolution for for all our browsing NEW needs.

it seems like the internet browser market is heating up where Microsoft is releasing their 8th version of the browser which its previous release didn’t do so well competing with Firefox 3.

so we will leave this war to time to settle this war.

Thinking of quality TV production in Kuwait!…Bad idea


So , we have been crying for a quality production on TV, something to be proud of, something that tells a genuine story which we can learn from, something on the same callibor as “King Farooq”, finally we get our answer, with “Assad Aljazeera”, it looks to be a brilliant show.

so what did we do to reward such an efforts? we BANNED it! that’s right. we need to give those people a reward for doing something useful, historical, educational, interesting, and most of all, watani. see for yourself.
