Saudi Arabia: In Case You Thought Saudi Women were Meek…
This video is awesome on so many levels: 1. We get to see the religious police at work in Saudi 2. We get to hear a Saudi woman giving them the business! Don't ever tell a woman to take off her nail polish. Hell hath no fury as a (Saudi?) woman scorned...

Anghami: The journey of launching an unlimited music streaming service in the Middle East
Starting a free music service is surprisingly not that easy in the Middle East. Anghami shows the Arab perseverance and still gets it done: "When talking about Anghami, it’s hard to avoid the comparison to services like Spotify and Rdio, offering users a way to legally stream music on their computers and smartphones. That comparison doesn’t really matter since Anghami is catering to an entirely different audience."

Arabs Got Talent 2 - 8th Episode
A Saudi comedian stole the show but did others get robbed? "I have one question though, why didn't "Abu El 7orof" get a second chance and move up a level? He's got an amazing talent and can count the letter of any paragraph in both Arabic and English! Why not him?"

It does not take much for a rumor to become the 'truth' on the social media network. "There are two updates one is for the Canon 70D and the other is the 7D Mark II. I hope the changes for the 7D Mark II are so much that it makes it worth it for me to upgrade. I have had my camera since Dec of 2009 and I still think its fantastic, I just want more for the video features and I hope they deliver on it. For now these are just a few rumors, I’m hoping for more news soon, come on Canon make us happy."
