Another day from the glorious month of Ramadan passes by, and another night filled with forgiveness, blessings and has absolutely NO TIME what so ever to do anything!

Recently, I've been resorting to keeping my folks on the speaker phone at my office just to have a chance to talk to them, while I work in the amazing speed of 7 dry-scientific-technical-literature an hour. And I tell you, it ain't fun.

Also, Facebook acquisition rumor inside!

My nights are even shorter. By the time I'm done with Maghrib, Iftar, socialize a bit with friends, then Isha, and Tarawih I glance at my watch and it's already 11PM! Add to that watching my favorite series and I end up needing 50 hour days to be able to squeeze all of that in one day!

Not only is Ramadan PACKED with Arabic Series, the fall season started and with it comes all the new awesome shows, like: Chuck, Heroes, Journeyman, Bionic Woman, in addition to Real time with Bill Maher and a bunch other.

So I heard this crazy rumor today, It seems that Microsoft is interested in Facebook! My first impression was OH NO! They're going to make Facebook suck even more! But upon close examination. If I was Microsoft, I would buy Facebook at ANY price. Imagine, 40 million users, a fertile ground for advertising. But they should keep everything as-is, and not try to Microsoftisize it.

The alternative of course is to leave it and I assure you, google will end up picking it up in no time (although facebook is kind of anti-google) but who can stand in the face of google? Google are attempting an incursion into the social networking domain with their iGoogle, while facebook is in desperate need for an IM system like live messenger or Google talk

Anyway, I'm super busy these days and nights. Who would have guessed Ramadan would end up such a busy month!!! I'm so jealous of people going by their business back in Jordan and the Arab world!! Nyyalkom!

And when are we going to make something and turn around and sell it Jad? Come on, think of something. You're smart enough :)
They're anti google because google tried a hostile take over and they got pissed off at them

Microsoft already has a deal with facebook, all the ads on facebook are provided by microsoft I believe, but now microsoft wants to buy 5% of facebook.

Google is planing to launch the new facebook on the 5th of november, I hope it will be something worthy, unlike the google talk and google videos.

BTW, I love Heroes, prison break is good too :P
