Even less needed cash in the pocket! A company called Square, had developed a little tiny dongle that converts the iPhone into a payment gateway! Yes, the merchant can use it like a K-net machine. It’s so simple that can be inserted into the audio jack, then start swiping the credit cards and enjoy purchasing. It’s open now for the public to try it.

Another amazing story here in Kuwait that confirms the government is somehow moving in the right direction as far as the technology is concerned. Yesterday, the Director General of the Public Authority for Civil Information (PACI) announced in a press release that the the holders of the new smart Civil ID card will be able to use it to pay when they fuel their cars at gas stations. This has been in collaboration with AlـSoor Fuel Marketing Company and the service will start I think on the national day; 25th Feb.
The issuance of the new card is limited now to the citizens who have their current ID expired, but the plan is to replace everyone’s IDs before the end of this year. As a matter of fact, they don’t mind if anyone wishes to replace his or her ID before it’s expired.
I’ve already managed to change mine and the family, where we used them to travel to Dubai few weeks ago.

Having mentioned before an interesting article raising a very simple question: “What If Israel have not been created?”, I guess this video is again saying the same thing in different approach.

العريس يظهر على شاشة البروجكت وعلامات الاستغراب تملأ المكان، وتعلو الدهشة كل من حضر هذه الليلة، ومشاعر الفرح والابتسامة تراود الحاضرين على استحياء، ليلة حضر فيها كل الأطراف (والد لعريس، ووالد العروسة،وأقاربهم مع المأذون الشرعي) باستثناء العروسين.. حالة غريبة، وزواج يستحق أن يروى للأجيال القادمة؛ فالعريس يدرس في أمريكا، والعروسة تعيش في المدينة المنورة، وعقد القران حدث في مدينة جدة بواسطة التقنية الجديدة.

Looking at the picture below, and the rest of the pictures, tells you that in Europe and the rest of the modern world they tend to keep as much as possible the old buildings, which is really cool.
