What would drive such a big company like Zain to provide such a small service like web hosting? I mean this service can be perfectly offered by individuals/freelancers and small companies, you can even do it for yourself if you have some technical knowledge.
Look at the prices of their hosting plans, it’s a rip-off, their 100 MB plan is for 250 JDs, of course sales tax will be added, my hosting plan from Hostgator gives me more than 600 GB disk space for 9$/month, 600 GB not MG, that’s like 7 JDs a month, less than 100 JDs a year.
Note: jazarah! welcomes everybody despite their sexual orientations! I mean everybody!
The Jordanian Ministry of Health “took the bold step” when it decided to break the silence about homosexuality in Jordan through conducting a research about numbers of gays and lesbians in the country, and guess how much they found? 20! Boy, Jordan does lack resources 
I guess the government should enforce rules to protect those 20 people to save diversity in the Jordanian community
Only 20 Jordanians are homosexuals! This is even funnier than AhmadiNejad’s statement when he said: Unlike USA, We don’t have homosexuals in Iran. This number doesn’t seem rational at all, I’m sure there are much much more than this, I mean if the government consider homosexuality a problem, denial is not the right approach to solve it, salvation begins with acknowledgment then applying solutions and perform follow-ups.
I don’t know the tools and methods used by the ministry to conduct this research, but go to couple of places in Amman like Books@Cafe or RGB and you will see tens, if not hundreds. Surf Facebook and you will find even more.
Gulf News published an interesting article about the golden rules for online social networking, these rules were compiled by Debrett’s following a survey conducted by Orange, Debrett’s is a British publisher offering advice on international etiquette, manners, good taste, style and sophistication.
This survey revealed that 66% of social networkers are frustrated and confused by online etiquette, while 25% are uncertain about how to respond to unwelcome pokes or messages.
The golden rules compiled by Debrett’s with Orange are:
1. You don’t have to make friends with people you don’t know. Think before you poke.
2. Wait 24 hours before accepting or removing someone as a friend. The delay will help you gather your thoughts.
3. Birthdays, engagements and weddings are not “virtual” events. Always send cards or phone friends when there is an important event.
4. Think before posting a friend’s photo what you would feel like if it was you.
5. Think carefully about your profile picture. Would you want it to be appearing in your local newspaper?
I would like to add few more rules, compiled by jazarah! 
1. Don’t add me unless you really found me interesting enough to be friend with, this is similar to Debrett’s first one, but I really want to highlight it as many people added me to their facebook then removed me, then re-added me, some of those people I don’t even know, so I guess you should make up your mind.
2. Don’t suggest friends.
3. Don’t invite me to every stupid application you use, I don’t want to be your pet, I don’t want to join your mafia war, I don’t want to be a vampire, I’m begging you, stop it.
4. Enough with creating all these pointless groups, since it’s free to do so it doesn’t mean that you can keep creating and inviting people to join more groups about silly things like oh my baby started walking or vote the best smile on facebook.
5. Check before you create an event or a group, some people might done it already, so it’s better to invite people to one entry instead of having five groups for the same issue.
6. Enough poking and let’s just have sex already.
7. Easy on the funwall and the superwall, it’s nice of you to send me cool stuff but don’t over use it.
A new ad by Fine, a well-known tissues brand, I was trying to find an explanation to this ad but frankly I couldn’t, then a friend of mine explained it saying that the player looks refreshed even that he is playing football, but I didn’t find it rational because as a start the crowed is not reacting with the goal, it seems as if they are watching TV, plus where is the rest of the team? How come the player is holding a pack of tissues in the middle of a football game? Plus the product is placed at the corner of the ad, so why to show it twice?
If that was the idea they could of showed a refreshed player among his sweating colleagues along with a tagline that sells the idea of refreshment that the product can offer.
On the right, a campaign for Cozmo that is running currently in Jordan, apparently it was precisely inspired by another campaign (on the left) that was created by Lowe Brindfors in Sweden more than 2 years ago, copycats copycats!
Thanks to the sender 
To begin with, I’m totally against anything that is offensive to religions, values and cultures, and by that I’m totally against the Danish cartoons about the prophet (PBUH) and the Dutch movie about Islam. I support reasonable freedom of speech, but if it’s going to offend others, then it’s rudeness and pointless.
Muslims raged against the movie and cartoons, in other words: kill us, destroy us, steal our fortunes, humiliate us in anyway you like, but don’t publish a movie or some cartoons, we are a sensitive nation.
What frustrates me the most is the stupid reaction towards such issues, yes let’s boycott their products for a while, then let’s go back to using it, then let’s boycott it again and again each time they offend our religion, yea right, good plan. Isn’t this motivating enough to have our own products, how difficult is it to raise few cows and produce a decent butter?
I wonder how is our life going to be if the whole world decided to criticize Islam; no cars, no mobiles, computers, internet, clothes, even praying stuff, no food… etc. I guess we will be riding camels and sending pigeons for SMS.
Now a group on facebook is promoting boycotting the Dutch products, the list includes beer, which is forbidden in Islam, yea I will espouse Islam and the Prophet through drinking Bud Light instead of Amstel and Heineken.
This is chaos, who’s behind this whole buzz? Some people believe that the “let’s boycott Dutch products” campaign were so effective even before it starts; this TV presenter Amr Adib said that this campaign stopped the offensive Dutch movies, I wonder why boycotting Danish products didn’t prevent the European media of republishing those cartoons, over and over, and over.
A friend of mine who lives in Europe told me that the Danish cartoons are being published yearly since 1998.
