This Week in the Blogosphere
October 26, 2008
Alright, first things first: I’ve been working hard on a couple of things this week, primarily adding new features to Kuwait Paper Dump (check out the blog for updates) so please excuse the sudden absence of my comments on your blogs. Second, I’ve noticed that Safat isn’t aggregating all the blogs that it lists so if your posts doesn’t show up there, chances are, I won’t see them to include them in these weekly briefs. Having said all that, here are this week’s highlights:
- Visual Basic is being taught in secondary schools
- Om MoD shares her experience at Lamis Nail & Bar Spa
- Desert Girl saves a bird that was trapped in a mall
- Intlxpatr praises the ministry for clearing out the public drains before rainfall
- Chikapappi wants to stop the stray cat tragedies
- A young boy asks to have his head shaved, regrets it, asks for his hair back
- The Stallion travels to the US, visits his high school for reunion
- The Crêpe Café is opening soon at Al-Raya
- Quiznos opens at Baitak Tower, Mark tries them out for lunch
- Fahad shares pictures of the Blue Mosque in Tabriz, Iran
- Ducati enjoys Pizza Express, while Torn Tool wasn’t allowed a kids meal there
- Catism shares a video about date-flavored ketchup from Saudi Arabia
- Erzulie gets her car serviced, but expected Al-Sayer to clean the interior
- DA spends a week in Cyprus, finds it beautiful
- Hellraiser visits the MOC to send a package abroad, spends 2 long hours there
- Master visits the Laila Gallery SPA, gets surprised to find it more like a gym
- Chrip gets stuck without cash after her bank revoked Dubai-hacked credit cards
- Fayoora’s mom takes a, “are you fat?” web advert a bit too seriously
- Grey gets caught staring at a women’s chest at Burger King
- Laialy_q8 undergoes corrective eye surgery, sees everything clearly now
- Яeema buys a home photo studio, has it assembled by her ‘experienced’ driver
- It rained, it rained, it rained, it rained :D
- Investors at the Kuwait Stock Exchange start a demonstration
- Intlxpatr dials 777, doesn’t get taken seriously by the police

Ducatiq8i, I try to keep the list as minimal and Kuwaiti-related as possible. Marzouq had a good post about Dubai’s aiport terminal, but I had to leave it out as well :/
Laialy, thank you :)

Ducatiq8i, it’s posts that are interesting and have good qualities and maybe contain pictures/video/detail or are simply discussed in many blogs (such as the rain posts).
If I were to add a one-line post that says “I’m traveling”, then I’d have to add all those other posts that say “I’m bored”, “I hate work”, “My car is broken”, etc… you get the idea.
There are well over 500 posts a week, you can’t expect me to include all blogs.
