I’ll just keep your comments of my question.
Twitter: Can Block Tweets in Specific Countries WorldWide
Posted by in Announcement | Economy | Reviews | Technology | World Life - (0 Comments)
Twitter announced before one day ago, starting new strategy of forcing blocking specific tweets/posts on Twitter in specific countries in the world. Well, I don’t think this satisfy twitters with this policy, as it was available since twitter started. Through my review, if this happened locally the Twitters may move to Facebook as this action is happening from the Twitter by it self.
Here is the post were was publish from Twitter Blog:
“The open exchange of information can have a positive global impact … almost every country in the world agrees that freedom of expression is a human right. Many countries also agree that freedom of expression carries with it responsibilities and has limits.”
As we continue to grow internationally, we will enter countries that have different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression. Some differ so much from our ideas that we will not be able to exist there. Others are similar but, for historical or cultural reasons, restrict certain types of content, such as France or Germany, which ban pro-Nazi content.
Until now, the only way we could take account of those countries’ limits was to remove content globally. Starting today, we give ourselves the ability to reactively withhold content from users in a specific country — while keeping it available in the rest of the world. We have also built in a way to communicate transparently to users when content is withheld, and why.
We haven’t yet used this ability, but if and when we are required to withhold a Tweet in a specific country, we will attempt to let the user know, and we will clearly mark when the content has been withheld. As part of that transparency, we’ve expanded our partnership with Chilling Effects to share this new page,http://chillingeffects.org/twitter, which makes it easier to find notices related to Twitter.
There’s more information in our Help pages, both on our Policy and about Your Account Settings.
One of our core values as a company is to defend and respect each user’s voice. We try to keep content up wherever and whenever we can, and we will be transparent with users when we can’t. The Tweets must continue to flow.

Only In Kuwait: Aggressive Competitor
Posted by in Economy | Kuwait Life | Others | Reviews - (0 Comments)
Today night during my way out from home. I found new sign on AlBada’a and fifth ring rd. Well, I tried to manage to take some shots from my iPhone. As you see above, there were three signs of a hotel which were perviously placed since years. Suddenly today a new big sign with a competitive sector placed over/next to it. Well, I don’t think this is by mistake, as there are three signs with the same thing. From my academic factors, competitive sectors shouldn’t work this way, which I think this really happened locally. I’ve been to many places, but haven’t seen something like this.
Yesterday night, I tried to get my room and office clean with unneeded items and old stuff. So I tried to find things were could I re-use it. One of these items were my old wallet Louis Vuitton, which is getting unused. After cleaning it, I thought of using it as a note-book for my daily notes. Throughout searching for small papers, successfully packed them up with looks professionally.
This could be one of the thing could reuse it again, so why we don’t follow this process in life, specially in our culture.
It’s a lovely item, made by Q8Path.
Do You Still Believe To Buy Your PC CD From Hawali?
Posted by in Economy | Kuwait Life | Misc. | Reviews | Technology - (0 Comments)
When you see these CD’s you remember they are from Kuwait “Hawali Bin Khalood St”. I’m one of the lovers since teenager and till now to visit Hawali Bin Khaldoon St. to finish the latest updates. But since some months, I was disappointed of the ways of cheating people with copy-softwares. But thanks god after getting the wonderful PC “MacBook Pro” I stopped visiting them. Specially, they promise it’s original and no one has it. But it’s available everywhere. Each year the price increase from 1KD and now 3KD per software.
Till when these shops are selling copy CD’s when they are not following the copyrights terms.
