Arabtimes have finally upgraded their website.. it is much much faster than what it used to be … Being one of the leading english dalies in kuwait. it is very necessary to have an amazing site. They still do have to add alot more features for the public, like community modules, forums etc so the public can raise points etc.
i had a brief run through their site.. its quite simple and to the point …Â Its a good thing they kept the design , very plain and simple. it gives the viewer less strain to the eyes, Especially if you going to do alot of reading.
But as i mentioned, they have looooong way to go to be like BBC and others (CNN is scrap). They do need facilities like i can pay my Newspaper subscription through KNET online and also a photo gallery .. of Pictures of the day and also invite other writers / bloggers to give comments and articles…
Way to go …. Arabtimes …

Well last week it was qualitynet. and this time its fasttelco. Whats worse with Fasttelco is their net works … but 90% of the websites in the world doesnt work. Either its blocked or their DNS doesnt work. DNS means .. it can means that your computer cannot find the location of website.
Meaning .. if you are reading blog.rayboy.org .. the DNS tells you computer that blog.rayboy.org is located at 64.74.223.78. So your Browser (IE, Firefox). will go to that server at location - 64.74.223.78. and display this website.
Unfortunately .. with Fasttelco their DNS servers dont resolve anything … and worse is they say nothing is wrong.. i had like around 20 customers call me and asking for help.. so i told them to change their dns to qualitynet…(you can do that even if you are using fasttelco internet) and it worked for them…
For those who needs qualitynet DNS its the following
195.226.224.72
195.226.224.74
The Internet is sooooooo slow in my office. i dont know its been like that for about 2 weeks now.
Having spoken to Qualitynet , they say they are either doing an upgrade or their system is down. Whats worse is that everyone is agitated in office becoz of this and gets on everyone’s nerves.
I wonder what to do? Qualitynet should have a support forum, where people can post comments about this and this could help in solving customer level problems. or a downtime can be noted….
What would you do .. when you are soooooooo busy, tied up and you get this unnecessary, unfruitful, boring, unwanted, non profitable task to do? and you have no choice but to obey…..
I wish i could explain ….. but its like so unnecessary ….Infact its unnecessary to write about it….. man im so frustrated!!!!!!
 I have finally touched the 1,00,000 mark, after having the car for about 3 years. Thank God, the car (Mazda 626 - 2000 model), has been a smooth ride. its an excellant family car. i have used it to the maximum for driving above 120Km (180 to be exact), carrying heavy load, doing the family groceries, roaming around with family,using it for work purposes and finally my own Portable IT garage. Its done it all…
I wouldnt be surprised if many of the other bloggers , may find me as a cheapshot. living with a Mazda (that too a older model). But for me, all i need is a great car, which would do all of the above. Not rip my pocket off. and Best is .. i could still use all the extra money ( i would otherwise put into an european car), for other better things in Life.
Most Expats mentality in the gulf , is that they make use of whats best , with few resources and save or utlize their fundings for other uses like sending money home, saving for india,studies.. or just enjoying life in a different way.

This is what happens ideally. In this real world, nine out of ten emails are read and then… the 10th one is totally forgotten. or if you are busy and want BAT to remind you to remind you about it..
The Bat! has a very nice feature that helps you remember these messages that you want to deal with later. It will remind you if you still haven’t replied after a day, for example, or if the message is still flagged or unread.
To make The Bat! remind you about an email later:
- Click with the right mouse button on the message in the message list.
- Select Remind later from the menu.
- Choose the desired time.
- Select the desired options for opening the email when the alarm goes off.
- Click OK.
The Bat! is an e-mail client for the Microsoft Windows operating system. The Bat! or simply Bath (to not confuse to the tobacco company of bat - b.a.t - british american tobacco tabacco, tobaco or tabaco ) development RitLabs.com one of the best email clients who is equipped almost by all necessary functions.
The given mailing program is offered in two versions: Home and Professional, differing in supported functions. I started using The Bat 6 years ago, when my outlook express crashed after an attack of the ‘I LOVE YOU’ virus. Luckily i had backup. Then i had vowed never to use Outlook express or OUtlook any more.. I was using Eudora for a short While, but wasnt too keen on it.
