Yes, of the thing we as Kuwaitis need in the net is this

a link to an intersting site
yahoo or google ?
Alot of people wonder who is better , since yahoo and google have a lot of stuff that are the same ( maps , search , mail ..etc )
Well , once i read news about Saudi Arabia protesting a bridge between Qatar & UAE [Aljazeera]
It made me sad, since well Saudi has no harbor there, hell I don’t think they have a city at the gulf in that section, the only reason that they don’t want the bridge is because Qatari people would be able to go to UAE without passing by Saudi
I went on a Road trip to UAE, in Dubai I bought a map for the road, the map wasn’t good, it didn’t even list the borders points between Saudi and UAE and it showed UAE direct connected to Qatar
When i Returned to kuwait , it kept bugging me , so i searched on Yahoo maps and found this [map] of Qatar with the UAE directly connecting to it
How could both a map company and yahoo both make the same misatke ?
so i checked Google maps and i found it right !
So in the Catagory Rgiht Arabic Borders , maps.google is better than yahoo maps
P.s: for some reason Google Earth doesn’t show it right also …
Future of kuwait city
I was browsing around and found this link at kuwait municipality
some nice stuff and buildings ( yeah i think are ugly , but you can’t have everything perfect )
for example take this building
a bit ugly and can send other signals about who draw it
Anyway its good to have a capital with more 20+ floor buildings , it was embarsing to have a capital with 2-3 20+ floors buildings
Low profile kuwaiti bloggers
I think we kuwaiti bloggers are under the rader , which could be good and could be bad
For example in dar Alhayat Newspaper [link][via] i found these 2 lines about kuwaiti bloggers
وليس عند البلوغرز الكويتيين ما يخشون من حكومتهم، وهم يعقدون اجتماعات والبلوغز الكويتية مجموعة في موقع واحد، وهناك نساء ورجال، وقرأت أنه أصبح في الكويت أكثر من مئة بلوغر.
English translation
And kuwaiti bloggers has nothing to fear from their government , they have meetings and the kuwaiti blogs are grouped in one location , there are women and men , and i read that there are over 100 bloggers in kuwait
And that was only 2 lines in a series of 7 article !
Other than some article from abdullatif al duaije ( عبداللطيف الدعيح ) than link to some blog from time to time , others do not show any connetion with bloggers .
What do you think , is going under the rader good or bad ?
