Tweets of Shame Can Taint Real-Time Search
2009-12-14 15:06:00 Before social networking, hacking was confined to one's personal computer.

Like Twitter, I know the number of one's followers can assist in spreading one's message virally. But isn't a fan page really just a puffed-up outlet for ego gratification and an opportunity to dupe ourselves and the public into believing that we get something out of renting a billboard on Facebook?

Chicago's public housing through international eyes
2009-10-29 18:30:00 Raquel Rolnik talks to Sean Johnson, a resident of Altgeld Gardens, about his housing problemsI imagined she would be austere and solemn. Sort of like the White Witch of Narnia, only not evil and speaking several languages. Turns out that Raquel Rolnik, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing, is anything but reserved. It's not often you meet a Brazilian housing policy expert who empathizes with a black man from Chicago's public housing, but that's just what Rolnik is like.

Amazon Kindle Launches For India With International Wireless From AT&T
2009-10-22 12:50:00 We had blogged last time as to how it might be smarter to wait and watch the kindle launch and eventual progress rather than jump out and buy one! Well maybe we got it wrong. Amazon has gone on a very aggressive note in India to promote the kindle. As per our source who attended the press conference Amazon is providing Kindle with AT&T’s US and International wireless services and this is at no monthly wireless bills and no yearly contracts as of now. There is also no software to install and no syncing required. The debatable point here is that is this wireless connection 3G or is it edge/gprs available on phones in India? Also who is AT&T’s partner operator here in India? Is AT&T entering India markets soon? AT&T was once a 2G player in India and exited the Indian markets in 2005 by selling its stake to IDEA Cellular. There is also news that AT&T now wants to enter the Indian market and will do so by buying the 3G spectrum at the upcoming 3G Auctions...

Breaking News : Farouk Hosni Lost The Elections
2009-09-22 23:02:00 Yes boys and girls Farouk Hosni has lost the UNESCO elections in front of Bulgarian Irina Bokova who has become the first woman to head the international organization :) Farouk got 27 votes and Irina got 30 in the final fifth vote. Now there is uncertain news that they busted some member in the Egyptian delegation trying to bribe the delegates , the sum they are speaking about is $50,000 !! Now I wonder if Farouk Hosni will be a man of his word and resigns as he promised to do or he will resign and Mubarak will not accept it as usual or he won?t resign and stays in his position !! Man I am so happy but I am sad on that money spent on his campaign and the humiliation and comprises Egypt had to pay all those month to win the minds and hearts of the United States and Israel.

2009-09-22 15:43:00 Now it is either Egyptian ?unfortunately? Farouk Hosni and Bulgarian Irina Bokova after their tie in yesterday?s fourth round in UNESCO elections for 29-29 votes. The last 48 hours were tense for Hosni , after all what he got 4 votes compared to Bokova who got 16 votes. The United States and France for sure are standing behind her along with the European countries that believe Hosni does not deserve this important cultural position. The international press continues its attack on Hosni who always felt that the national press was attacking him , let him taste the really media attack is , French Le Monde attacked him and NY Times introduced a new disturbing unknown fact to the Western reader about Hosni : While being the Egyptian cultural attaché in Rome, he helped to organize the escape from Italy in 1985 of the hijackers of the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro !! This fact was taken from an Elaph?s website article that I can?t determine whether it is with or agains...

Regarding Farouk Hosni : Last Argument
2009-09-17 00:52:00 I think I spoke a lot along others online and offline regarding our rejection to Farouk Hosni?s nomination to hold the highest cultural position internationally as the UNSECO?s director general. Of course we have been attacked in the official press as if it were from patriotism and the love of Egypt to say Yes for Farouk Hosni , well it is because we are patriots and we are madly in love with Egypt , we say No to Farouk Hosni. We have been attacked in the official press because we are saying working against the Muslim and Arab candidate in the race despite the fact that candidate did not work for 20 years to preserve our Islamic Arabic heritage. We are saying No because we love our country more than Hosni whom for 20 years worked in successive cabinets for a suppressive regime in a sign for loyalty even the defense and interior ministers did not enjoy for all that time long. One of the things that made me sad is the fact that the controversy regarding anti-Semitism and burni...
