The OpenID

SA,


Today I've activated my OpenID on Yahoo, So what is open ID? what problems does it solves?, rather than me copying and pasting in my blog entry , try to check this site

http://openid.net/

i was using something similar for Microsoft Sites called (Live ID) it is a single sign-on solution that save you the trouble from registering with several user names and passwords into different sites , so there will be one account for all sites (for technical people it is a unified authentication mechanism)

I was crying for something like this for ages, because i was sick of creating a new account for every web site I'm interested in

Till the next post, Leave you in peace

Accommodation Progress

SA,
Alhmdu Le Allah, after two months i finished my papers of accommodation , i got my accommodate ID card and opened an account i n bank called KFH , now things is beginning o get somehow more stable , i'm still in a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad need of car this county doesn't have means of transportation , Taxis are few and very expensive, and here everything to get need a long trip , nothing is near but some small supermarkets and restaurants




I KNOW .. i look Horrible but this is a long story, when i was in Egypt the executive secretary told me to take 32 pictures 4x6 (YES 32 for paper work) with your face occupying 70% of the picture and with a blank background, i was shocked but i did it, and after i got them here in kuwiat, they were refused!!!!! , Why ? (I kept saying insults after i knewthe reasons and i think you will too)

They were refused becuause i was SMILING and wearing GLASSES

So i did swear that i'll give them a horrible photo and i did ;)

At this moment i began to realize how this country is soo silly and annoying , and guess what it was just the beginning, then i went to make the medical checks waiting in long queues with all labour people from all countries, it was a heck of a gathering there, Indians,Pakistanis,Sirilankans,Kashmeers,Bangals,Chineseas,Philippines .. and ppl from Jordan,Lebanon and other arab countries,Thanks go to Allah it finished in one day tripping from a hospital to another .....

Thats for now .. tell we meet again leave you in peace

Hi everyone .. i've decided to make this blog my personal web diary of what is happening in my life , for me to remember after years or for any of my friends who is interested ....

Brief of what happen the last year
For the record now i'm in Kuwait ... i left my sweet company Global Impact after a year of struggle with my issues and hesitating , Global Impact is so precious to me ,i was involved into the development of the company progressing from a small company working chaotically to a mature organization [CMM qualified :) )]

I booked a flight on air ways called Al Jazzera Air Ways

Pictures from my flight:



I was struggling with my life trying to keep on moving but it seems Egypt has another plan to break my plans , i have to leave now after some financial issues and the crazy expensive life that keep on increasing in a rate that is faster than my rate .....

So i took the decision , i was hurt badly leaving my family,friends and workplace, to head to the stupid gulf were all people just go for money making ,chaos work environment and peope that may kill thier father and step on your head at work for a $ ....

Now i'm working in a company called Safat Enterprise Solutions (SafatES for short) that provide IT consulting , resources and solution developments services, it has been 2.5 months now ..

I'm really struggling with life here because i've got no friends close only me dear friend Maged who got me the offer here , but he is too busy because he is just married :) , Also a i got a great help from my relative here Eng.Wessam Said - Construction Manager he really supported me a lot since i got here , i'll be in his debt for ever
