I think I am going to get me one of these foofpod ipod sleeves. They look very cozy and snugly, just need to figure out which color goes better with my blue mini.. or maybe it doesn’t have to match.. [Link]
4 Billion Mega Pixel Picture
How does a 4 billion mega pixel picture taken by a digital camera look like? Unbelievable, check this link out. [Link]
This is the picture of the fake Hungry Bunny that I spoke about a few days ago thats opening on the 4th ring road. As you can see, although they are using a similar typeface and color scheme as the official Hungry Bunny, the main visual of the bunny rabbit is different.
Pepsi have a promotion going on where if you send them an SMS you have a chance to win an iPod shuffle. When I first saw the ad I thought they had a Pepsi iTunes promotion going on like the one in the States.
Look What I Found
I found this under my building.
Just yesterday I posted about the end of the Sub Club here in Kuwait but when I went to Sbarro for lunch they gave me their own version! Its only valid at Sbarro, Hardees, KFC and Baskin Robbins.. but the Fashionway branch. Order anything over KD1.200 from these 4 restaurants and they will give you a sticker. After 4 stickers you get your choice of either a Hardees or KFC combo for free! Offer valid till August 10th.
Satellite Map of Kuwait
Was playing around with Google maps when I decided to check out Kuwait. It’s amazing! I didn’t think they would have Kuwait but they do. Now for some reason half of Salmiya is NOT available on Google and that half includes my house but a lot of other landmarks are available to spy on from above. Check out the Kuwait Towers and the Amirs house! [Link]
Update: Here is the link for an overhead shot of the airport. [Link]
80’s Arcade Games
This site has some classic arcade games as flash, my favorite is Space Invaders followed closely by Moon Patrol. [Link]
No Free Subs
It’s official now here in Kuwait also. No more Sub Club, no more stamps. When I asked the guy why they stopped them he told me because some kids in the States made copies and sold them on eBay. I was surprised to know the guy knew the full story. Now I have a whole bunch of Subway cards that are full and I can’t use them. SUCKS!

Flickr Banned in the UAE
It seems Flickr got banned yesterday in UAE. According to this discussion, Flickr got banned because of the nudity found on it. This said, the UAE users are blamming the people who are shooting nudes for the ban when they should be blaming their government.
Update: According to a comment left in this post the UAE flickr community will be moving to UAEflickr.com
Update 2: Can’t find nudes on Flickr? Try this link, followed by this link and then this link.
Hungry Bunny
Just a note, the Hungry Bunny opening on the 4th ring road is NOT the official one. Thank you.
