GLEE Season TWO!

When I first heard that GLEE is back...I was happy...when I finally found a site to stream it off and watched it....I was reminded of how much happiness and excitement this show really brings me...I think it's the combination of my love for high school shows...music..especially songs that I could sing along to..and let's not forget my extra LOVE for comedies!! I'm really speechless...super excited about watching the rest of the series..and worried I won't be studying :P anyways this is one of my FAVE episodes...the songs they picked were my most loved ones...including New York, Telephone, and Billionaire...:D All were performed very well...and the plot surprises me more than before...The writers are MUCH better..I'm guessing because they want to be better and know they have to improve...AHHHHHHHHHHHH..and the new members of the show FAB FAB FAB! Seriously, they have a really great team working with them! This show gives me goosebumps and brings me to tears at the same time...because of the JOY of hearing such amazing voices...I don't think this ever happened to me with anything I've known! Honestly...when my bro told me I would love this show...I didn't understand...then he gave me the first series and I finished it in under 2 days :P

So not to keep you any longer....ENJOY!

P.S: If it doesn't work just go to this LINK...and I really don't know whats up with the ad's :P

ENJOY and add a little fun to your day!

The Other NBK Eid Ad. 2010 - دعايه البنك الوطني نبي عيديه

Everyone kept telling me to watch this...I didn't actually like it...what about you guys? I like the original advert but my sister made a good observation. This isn't actually good for children because it encourages them to be materialistic and wanting money in a disrespectful way. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed the kids' dancing! They look like fun kids and the dresses the girls were wearing were really pretty.

Anyways, what do you guys think of this "other NBK ad"?

 ************

UPDATE: Another cute version.




CUTE! I luv it when kid's dance, but what's up the the white thing on their hands?

Enjoy again :D

Zawarat Khamees Episode -30 - زوارة خميس - الحلقة الأخيرة

Ends with a DEATH and a BIRTH, just like the other show "Umayma". Honestly, it is a very disappointing ending. Many things could have been cut out and replaced with a events to make a better plot. I'm not saying it's a bad show, but it needed an extra edge to it. I really enjoyed the series and am glad that the Kuwaiti series's style is improving  and changing. It isn't perfect and there needs a bit more work to have been done, however, it is the one of the things I enjoyed in Ramadan. The fact that the writer involved new ideas and latest issues is great!

What did you guys think?

Asnan Clinic 2010 - Part 1 & 2 دعاية اسنان كلينك - جزء

The BEST advert Ramadan 2010!

Totally didn't expect it to have a second part!

ENJOY!

P.S: Is the guy really Pakistani or is that just a rumor? 

I know the girl is Kuwaiti or I might be wrong? 

Nevertheless GREAT AD!

Zawarat Khamees Episode - زوارة خميس - الحلقة- 26

 

 





I liked this episode. I think this is a lesson for the men in the house. They didn't feel anything when they were doing the same to their wives. But (9ub7an Allah) when it happened to their mum, they didn't like the feeling and got so angry. I feel so bad for the people that are married to the person they love for so long then something like that happens to them. Imagine the pain..the confusion..the regret..the feeling of emptiness. In some way or another, we are all put in situations where we feel like we don't understand what's happening to ourselves or the world. I think that Thnayan is going through a mid-life crises. I wonder what will happen next!??

Hey..is it true that the events leaked out and spread around Kuwait? Is it false info? or Did what they say actually happen??

P.S: If you missed the episode! Watch it!

NBK's Eid Ad. 2010 - Ana B3d Aby 3eedyaaaa!

But I'm not gonna dance. I LOVE it! It's so cute. I'm sure you've all already seen it, but just in case you didn't, I had to share. The other adverts that they had this Ramadan weren't that amazing.

ENJOY!

Thanks Frankom for sharing!

Zawarat Khamees Episode - زوارة خميس - الحلقة 25

 




Todays episode really bothered me because most the woman were treated terribly, when they weren't the one's who made a mistake! MOST of the woman here are true victims. :/

ENJOY!

Diaspora*: "You're Only Open Source Social Network"

The privacy aware, personally controlled, do-it-all, open source social network.

The Diaspora* team from NYU includes Daniel Grippi, Maxwell Salzberg, Raphael Sofaer, and Ilya Zhitomirskiy. These young computer science programmers are hoping to build an open-source, distributed social network as an alternative to other social networks like Facebook, apparently after the issue concerning privacy. They decided to try raise $10,000 which they did successfully with the help of Kickstarter.

What does "diaspora" mean?

A diaspora (in Greek, διασπορά – "a scattering [of seeds]") is the movement or migration of a group of people, such as those sharing a national and/or ethnic identity, away from an established or ancestral homeland.

The word diaspora usually refers to the scattering of race, people or nationality like the Jewish, Lebanese or African American diaspora. Here it's referring to just as "scattering" I think as an "open source". I might be wrong though.

So what is Diaspora* the site?

Enter your Diaspora “seed,” a personal web server that stores all of your information and shares it with your friends. Diaspora knows how to securely share (using GPG) your pictures, videos, and more. When you have a Diaspora seed of your own, you own your social graph, you have access to your information however you want, whenever you want, and you have full control of your online identity. Once we have built a solid foundation, we will make Diaspora easy to extend to facilitate any type of communication, and the possibilities will be endless

What is the Diaspora* project about?

"We believe that privacy and connectedness do not have to be mutually exclusive. With Diaspora, we are reclaiming our data, securing our social connections, and making it easy to share on your own terms. We think we can replace today's centralized social web with a more secure and convenient decentralized network. Diaspora* will be easy to use, and it will be centered on you instead of a faceless hub."

Why they needed money?
 
"We have a plan, a bunch of ideas and the programming chops to build Diaspora. What we need is the time it takes to iron out a powerful, secure, and elegant piece of software. Daniel, Ilya, Raphael, and Maxwell are all ready to trade our internships and summer jobs for three months totally focused on building Diaspora. We want to write code all the time, everyday. Once we have made our first solid iteration, we are going to release our code as free software so everyone can make Diaspora even better. $10,000 buys the software for everyone who wants to use it, forever. We think it can change the way people communicate and empower individuals to permanently take control of their online identities.
After we open source our source code, we hope to also provide a paid turnkey hosted service in the vein of Wordpress.com to make it easy for people who want to use Diaspora, but don’t want to deal with the fuss of setting it up.* We will make it easy to export your data and configuration, so if you decide you want to graduate and host your seed yourself, you are free to do so at anytime.
Our goal is for everyone to have full control over their data and to empower people in to become responsible, secure, and social Internet dwellers. We believe offering this service will be helpful to non-technical users who are also worried about their data and privacy online."

Their Promise.

"We promise to you that Diaspora will be aGPL software which will released at the end of the summer."

Diaspora* Technical Specifications

    * Full-fledged communications between Seeds (Diaspora instances)
    * Complete PGP encryption
    * External Service Scraping of most major services (reclaim your data)
    * Version 1 of Diaspora's API with documentation
    * Public GitHub repository of all Diaspora code.

What is a Decentralized Social Network?

So what is Diaspora anyway? Instead of being a singular portal like Facebook, Diaspora is a distributed network where separate computers connect to each other directly, without going through a central server of some sort.

Once set up, the network could aggregate your information - including your Facebook profile, if you wanted. It could also import things like tweets, RSS feeds, photos, etc., similar to how the social aggregator FriendFeed does. A planned plugin framework could extend these possibilities even further.

Your computer, called a "seed" in the Diaspora setup, could even integrate the connected services in new ways. For example, a photo uploaded to Flickr could automatically be turned into a Twitter post using the caption and link.

When you "friend" another user, you're actually "friending" that seed, technically speaking. There's not a centralized server managing those friend connections as there is with Facebook - it's just two computers talking to each other. Friends can then share their information, content, media and anything else with each other, privately using GPG encryption.

Diaspora*, the Turn-Key Solution

Because not everyone will be technically capable of (or interested in) setting up their computer to function as a "seed," there are plans to offer a paid turn-key service too, similar to Wordpress.com, the blogging platform. Wordpress itself is software you can install and configure on your own server, if you're inclined to do so, but if you're less technically-savvy, you can opt to quickly start a blog via Wordpress.com instead. Diaspora would function in a similar way.

If a lot this sounds reminiscent of Opera's Unite project, the Web browser maker's overly-hyped plan to "reinvent of the Web," it should. In Opera Unite, users can share documents, photos, music, videos and run websites and chat rooms by directly linking two computers together.

However, in Unite's setup, there are Opera-run proxy servers involved, which led to issues - especially when those servers went down. Diaspora wouldn't have that problem.
Mainstream Success?

Still, the concepts behind Diaspora, while the sort of thing tech geeks will eat up, may be harder to grasp for the everyday Facebook user who is still trying to figure out how post a link or video to their Wall. Distributed, decentralized, open-source what?

If Diaspora is realized, it will be up to technology advocates to position the turn-key service in a way that will make it sound simple and appealing to precisely those sorts of mainstream users if it is to ever succeed. Taking shots at Facebook's privacy issues may be a good course (Take back control with Diaspora!).

I got most of the information from the links below. Take a look and read. It is very interesting to read people's comments and thoughts on Diaspora.

When will Diaspora* be released?

The team also meantioned that it will be out maybe on the 15th of September which is just 2 weeks away! 

I got most of the information from the links below. Take a look and read. It is very interesting to read people's comments and thoughts on Diaspora.

1. Techcrunch

2. Read Write Web 

3. Pinoy tutorial

4. Jaxov

5. Kickstarter 

6. Crunch Base

And of course their official site is  Diaspora*

Another interesting video that I found is:

I think the coolest thing I learned from this video is about the Quit Facebook Day site. It's amazing I didn't think people would be feeling so much hatred towards it. Also, check out All Facebook site. :)

I hope all this helps and that you found all this interesting ;) 

I really like the idea of it especially as they will help people control their information, seeing as many problems happend with Facebook. I think if they achieve this I'm definitely on board! ;)

What do you guys think about this? Would you join it and support them? Do you think it is a good idea and will it ever take over Facebook?
