Kuwait to block Youtube
Kuwait has ordered local internet service providers to block online video-sharing website YouTube over clips that could offend Muslims, reported AP. The government says the website displays the Quran in the form of songs sung with the oud (a stringed instrument) and displays disrespectful pictures of the Prophet. The website could still be accessed in Kuwait on Monday.
Update: Some bloggers from Kuwait are suggesting that the block has been overturned.

Vacation & Traffic Sources
Well, I’m on “vacation” again in Mexico for a few weeks this time =], so you can expect some more updates. Also, I’m proud to say that according to Google Analytics, 88.50% of the sites traffic is from search engines! To me this is quite an accomplishment, and a mere 7.81% is from referring sites. Some of my old project such as Naruto Anime relied heavily on referring sites for traffic, this website / blog seems to be alot more self-sufficient, meaning I don’t have to do as much work looking for affiliates and links in :).

New Dedicated Server
Well, this morning I ordered a new dedicated server from Layered Tech, hopefully they set it up pretty quickly, I am very anxious to get things going on it, this server is meant for game servers such as CS, and a voice server, the specs aren’t too bad especially for the price @ 75 / m.
- Proc: AMD XP 2400
- RAM: 2GB
- Hard Drive: 250GB
Pretty good deal, except the wait time :(.
