Thursday's Message to Mubarak
I was walking in the YouTube city and found out about this amazing person. I saw all the videos he uploaded. Addressing Mubarak with all kind of comedy (esp black comedy). What a weapon the internet can be to a regime like this. Very effective really. V fighting his last enemies If you saw V for Vendetta, you will compare these videos to the role of Gordon Dietrich in the movie, when he made fun of the High Chancellor Adam Sutler, the same thing. Gordon Dietrich At first when I saw that movie, I thought that we might needed the person himself, but after some analysis, I now realize that…

Today I went to the Kelmetna seminar about bloggers by invitation from Tohamy. I went 10 minutes late to find Mohamed Hamdy, Maged, Armoty, Shimaa, Tohamy, Michael, Mustafa Fat'hy, Sarah and others already came.

Why, when and how type of questions. Then we reached the basic questions which is related to blogging in general. 1. Copyrights2. Freedom of Speech in blogs (and in general)3. Karim Amer of course4. Obscenity and foul language in blogs (and obviously verbal harrasment)5. Censorship6. The question if blogging affect…

Politics reflection on the society
I was having a little chat with my fellows in the Egyptian Bloggers Online Café and they suggested a debate about how can politics and politicians (or in short, the government) just put their print on the way people deal with each other. This is actually what I'm trying to compare in my blog here, Politics and the Society. I guess that if scientists compare societies with monarchies with each other they will reach to some similarities, and the same with republics. Why? This is the question. It is supposed that people give politicians the sacred right of ruling them (usually in means of voting), they believe in them in…

Coverage from Sandmonkey
From Sandmonkey I just came back from the demonstrations…No, that's a lie. I've been back almost an hour and a half now, and it took me this long to get myself together, shake myself out of the shock I am feeling, and actually sit down and write this. Here is what happened. Around 5:15 pm today I was in Talaat Harb square with my friend M. when I called Hosam and asked him his whereabouts. He informed me that he is at 7amadah cafe next to the AUC. So I went there with M. and sat with him, while waiting for the people to gather up. On the road over…

The Cultured vs who.
I just came back from a good photography exhibition in the Culture Wheel for the sweet blogger Eno and other photographers from the Egyptian photographers group. It was really great to see Eno, Enadaha, Abdo, Eman M, and the others. It all went well until the moment we were about to go to the nearby cafe to rest for a while and have a little chat. We had a little fright as there was some loud cries and so, then we found out that there was some kind of performance behind the curtain which separated it from the exhibition we were in. After a while we found out a woman…

Sohbageya
Yesterday I went to the Culture wheel to attend a concert to some Arabic rock band called ElSohbageya, meaning in Arabic being friends or something near to it. The band is formed from Hamed, Kelma, ElSadgh and the others. I met several bloggers like Still Breathing and Maat and others. It was really nice, though I liked the music better. The sound system of the Wheel sucks as usual, I wish if they are ever better. Also the voice of Ibtihal who came for a small part of the concert was really great, the sound system made her voice so slow that it was hardly listened. Anyway, I thought it…

Five things no one knows about me.
A tag from قلم جاف and here come five things that no one knows about me: 1. I usually go out alone, finding all those on my list usually busy 2. I don't like watching football, though I follow from time to time the most important Egyptian victories and other wise, too much time wasted on watching matches, movies are better :P Thanks Heba for inspiration for this point. :P 3. This blog is not my original first blog, and it was not intended to be personal when first made. 4. I hate hotmail so much, and I hate using hotmail accounts with MSN messenger 5. I'm a right wing…
