Internet Foraging

For those of you who haven't seen http://syn.aqoul.com yet, it's an online media aggregator that collects MENA-related mainstream and blog items using RSS/XML/Atom feeds. Not quite finished, suggestions and comments are welcome.

On an unrelated note, for your Friday afternoon (or Friday evening, or Saturday morning...bloody timezones) enjoyment, here is an interesting photo (Source - From Cairo, with love):

There's an even funnier one on the front page, but it's going to be removed shortly.

Bah, we can do far, faaaaaaaaaaaaar better than that in North Africa. Bloody Egyptians, always think they're the bloody cat's paw or whatever. Bah.

i second Lounsbury's remark. North Africa can do far better than that any day of the week, especially during Ramadan.

will that agregator have an RSS feed of its own that i can syndicate on my own RSS reader for ease of use? (yes, yes, i'm a lazy SOB and dont want to have to go to more than one website to read everything)

Dr: Yeah, I can probably set one up soonish. Will drop a link in the sidebar once it's working.

was it my permalink url that caused the comment to disappear in the outer blogsphere?

wanted to say the funnier picture will always be available at my blog -- love it sooo much
