This is a time lapse of the Kuwait Towers with storm clouds slowy brewing.

Whats fascinates me is the sun moving across and damn is it bright.

It finally hit 50C in my car temp. Most likely its higher than that but it is limited at 50.

I been on Twitter for a while and seeing many Kuwaiti companies making a account and not knowing how to use it for their benefit. Thinking just opening an account will simply generate sales. Well here are some pointers you can use for your advantage.

Dont Spam
I can’t stress this enough. Just repeating the same statement over and over again will annoy us and will simply block you. You aren’t doing anything to make you different.

Engage
You have to engage your followers. Dont just offer the latest sales promotion. Give them updates on what you are planning to do, and working on. Reply to their tweets. Their feedback is important. Twitter is giving you a direct access to them and vice-versa. If you ignore them they will ignore you in return.

Educate
Link to other sites with tips and trick as well as reviews of new products as well as features and options you dont and see if they are interested in them.

Encourage
Have other members of the company also participate with their on Twitter accounts. Have each department have their own offer their own take on whats happening. Also if you are a big company have a dedicated customer support team for dealing with problems and solving them on spot.

These are just some basic guidelines. Each company, restaurant, shop etc is different. Once you start dont stop because you dont have immediate results. It take time to build a following and figure out what works best.

Oh this just came to me. Restaurants can post if they are full or not and how long the wait will be. I am sure many people would enjoy that during busy weekends. Bakeries can tweet how many cakes or muffins they have left if anyone wants to make a quick order before they get sold out.

When you ban something you just make that much sweeter. Bahrain Ministry of Information has done just that by banning their own BahrainBlogs.org. Their version of Safat

I am sure this will be a big boost for blogging and freedom of speech in the island Kingdom.

I Cant believe it will be higher than the Liberation tower. It will really be a marvel in the Kuwait sky line.

I am not sure where the photographer busted this out, but a true classic!

The rain is a bit late but very much appreciated.

Ever wonder where you favorite sitcoms in New York are? Well wonder no more.

It does give a different perspective of where they are especially looking back at the time frame of the respective shows.

I just love it.

A girl misses her train to Milan and is set to wait overnight in Rome until dawn. However, a chance encounter with a guy changes her plans and the night lights of the capital turn into the background to a tender love story. An extraordinary chemistry made of knowing glances and small gestures fills the few instants that separate them both from the sunrise.
