I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

The New Dork” Goes Viral

Remem­ber how ‘uncool’ it was to be a dork in high school or col­lege? Actu­ally, it was pretty much uncool any­where and any­time! Well, it seems that times have changed.
The Pant­less Knights made this rockin’ music video called “The New Dork — An Entre­pre­neur State of Mind (from the guys behind Grasshopper.com); a spoof of Jay-Z and […]

Send Money to Friends on Facebook

Is there any­thing you can’t do or share on Face­book? Appar­ently not! It seems that the ever so pop­u­lar and pow­er­ful social net­work does more than just allow you to con­nect with ‘friends’ and share pho­tos, videos, mes­sages, sta­tuses, web links…Now, you can also trans­fer small amounts of money of up to €50 or about […]

Yours Truly is…Blog of the Week!!!

So, I just got some news tonight that put quite a big smile on my face ! No…I didn’t win the lot­tery (although that would have been nice too ) nor did my long lost child­hood pet guinea pig [Snuf­faluffa­gus] find his way home and crawl back into his cage!
…nit­ty­Griddy was selected as “Blog […]

Google My Ride!

It may look like a psy­che­delic ver­sion of a “Pimp My Ride” mobile…but it’s not! It’s none other than Asif Hus­sain Shah’s taxi! WHO/WHAT? A Pak­istani cab dri­ver turned author. Just Google him and see for yourself…I sure as heck did! Oh, and if that’s not enough, you can also YouTube him and watch the 5 minute doc­u­men­tary [with “Memories” […]

Top 20 Facebook Messages: My Hit List

It’s incred­i­ble the effect a Face­book pro­file pic­ture has on peo­ple. When you upload or update one [depend­ing on your pri­vacy set­tings], your entire list of “friends” gets to know about it — which in turn usu­ally results in a pleas­ant bom­bard­ment of either approv­ing mes­sages and thumbs up’s or sar­cas­tic remarks; but, let’s be […]

The Lebanese Blogosphere: Blogs to Blog About!

Being rel­a­tively new to the blo­gos­phere, I tend to dis­cover and learn new things about blog­ging every­day. Not only that, but the amount of ran­dom knowl­edge I’ve accu­mu­lated over the last cou­ple of months (from research­ing), is sim­ply ridicu­lous; in a good and valu­able sort of way. The best part though, is that I come […]

Facebook Facts & Figures

Feb­ru­ary 4th was Facebook’s 6th birth­day. Yes, believe it or not, the social net­work­ing titan and the most talked about web­site [actu­ally, the most talked about any­thing] in the world, is a measly 6 years old! I think that Har­vard dropout and boy genius Mark Zucker­berg as well as his room­mates do more than just […]

Social Media 101

see­ing how big and pop­u­lar social media has become the last few years and that nit­ty­Griddy is an exam­ple of such a site [not the big and pop­u­lar part — at least not yet ], i thought it only nec­es­sary and rel­e­vant to post a brief 101-style piece on the sub­ject. also, it’s very prob­a­ble that […]

The Top Facebook Fiends

face­book this, face­book that — it’s always some­thing about freakin’ face­book! although i think it’s by far one of the most bril­liant inven­tions on the net, i also some­times refer to it as the ‘home­wreck­ing site.’
face­book = a place where friend­ships start and end, rela­tion­ships begin and shat­ter… a com­mu­nity where shar­ing is a must and […]

Is Facebook Watching You?

is  face­book watch­ing me? does the social net­work­ing giant know about every pro­file i visit, every image i view, every pri­vate mes­sage i send, every per­son i poke…? can employ­ees access anyone’s account? i’m sure that every sin­gle one of you on face­book (mean­ing all 350 mil­lion of you) has won­dered at one point or another, […]

Big Names on Twitter
