An rather unusual incident occurred last night: MBH, another close friend and I had gone out to Hawalli’s Bin Khaldoon Street to check out some computer hardware prices. While browsing, we entered one of the shops where a foreign man wearing a shirt and trousers was standing at the salesman’s desk asking for good antivirus software. His facial features [...]

Got this via email, but not sure if it’s true:
Warning from police: If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away.
Normally, you would walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside, start the engine then shift into Reverse. When you look into the rear-view mirror to [...]

Now that Gears has finally been released for Safari, this feature should be accessible with all major browsers and platforms (with the exception of Opera and 64-bit Linux):
By clicking the ‘Turbo‘ link on the top-right corner of the dashboard, WordPress users can enable Google Gears; a browser extension that caches dynamic web content locally. From then on, Gears causes [...]

Found this via TechCrunch:
Increasingly, you want to know about the impacts of the products you buy. On your health. On the environment. On society. But unless you’ve got a Ph.D, it is almost impossible to find out the impacts of the products you buy. Until now…

Google’s new browser, Chrome, is undoutably one of the fastest browsers available, but for me, its speed and multiprocessing are the least of my favorite features. I think the team behind Chrome’s UI have done an exceptional job of, “keeping things out of the way” and making the user experience incredibly simple. Here’s why:
1. No [...]

Brought to my attention via CommandN: CookThink is a website that lets you type in any combination of ingredients, dish types, cuisines, or moods then automagically matches them to delicious easy-to-do recipes to satisfy your cravings. Their database is far from comprehensive at the moment, although they claim new recipes are added daily.
Great for quick everyday meals in my opinion; definitely worth [...]

I found a cool guide via Digg on how to write clearly that reiterates the fact that many bloggers underestimate the advantages of writing short concise posts. Long posts, in general, give the impression of being tedious and it’s been shown numerously that people ’scan’ rather than read them.
I highly recommend reading it if you wish to improve your writing. [...]

If you haven’t watched the movie yet, come back later.
Before I begin, let me mention that I have really enjoyed the movie, particularly Heath Ledger’s outstanding performance as the Joker. Batman, in my opinion, lacked in several elements:
