I am extremely proud of the passion of Karachi people I must say Karachi you are the man. Thanks to all those who made it possible and made us feel happy and proud. Pakistan has made the world record of most people singing the national anthem. Moreover, this might be the best Independence Day gift from Pakistanis to Pakistan this year. I was here 7000 km away from the venue but was extremely excited about that and was missing to be there like anything that might be the reason I was singing alone in the garden at the time fellow Pakistanis in Karachi were making history. I would like to say thanks and congratulate Abid Beli. Abid bhai you have done it congratulations on getting it done for Pakistan and for sure you and your team own Pakistan. videos of the historical moment are below:

This is information age, and media is one major source of information.

How Technology can change life of Madrasah Students
August 4th, 2011
I have been of the opinion that Madrasahs (seminaries) can be the best NGOs and more than a year old post of mine shows my opinion over this part of our society (here). Being a Madarasah student in the past I know that there is a cushion for something productive to be used in the leasure time that students at seminaries have. Learning Quran is indeed one great thing but learning Quran along with gaining the know how of the latest updates that are taking place in the world can be helpful to the Madrasah students. Thanks to facebook I came accross to the following video that is showing that Technology can change life of a Madrasah Student.

Pakistani Bomb or Pakistani Representative? you make choice

If days can be remembered with the events that take place on that particular day than 27th July of 2011 can be the HRK day. Yes here with HRK I mean Hina Rabbani Khar, the Federal Foreign Minister of Pakistan. Why I feel that way about this day is the result of the observation.
I woke up this morning and what first thing I saw in my twitter timeline was a tweet saying, “I just hope Hina Rabbani Khar return with something more diplomatically tangible than offers for bollywood flicks or Big Boss shows.” As I was not completely awake at that time, it took me some time to recall all the things that could have helped me in understanding the reason behind such tweet.

Time for G+ing with Google+
July 2nd, 2011
Social media is one major part of my ongoing MSC Dissertation and therefore I have to keep an eye on the things going around. Two days back something big happened when highly anticipated Google+ came into scene and turned into wild fire. Almost everyone on the online world was talking about it. I believe it might be the only day in the history when such massive number of invitations spread around the globe. Google+ is not available for general public right now therefore one can jump into this ride only if someone receives an invite. I am thankful to Mr. Badar Khushnood, Country Representative of Google in Pakistan, for the invite. It took me sometime to make a profile on it and to have my hands on, because of it being over capacity, that shows the kind of fame it gained in no time.

Ideas are something powerful enough to bring change. Another fact is that the current era is an era where a war is going on – The war of ideas. Therefore, the victory in this war is not going to happen because of military might and technology for defense. The war of ideas can only be won by more ideas. Ted is a platform to spread the ideas that deserves to be shared with the mass audience.
