2:48AM in Thouq
I just got the new copy of Thouq magazine today and it turns out they have a small write up on my blog. I also noticed the magazine is now like 6 to 8 times bigger in size, not page wise but actual physical size. Its huge and you can see in the picture below how big it is compared to the iPhone. I wonder if all their issues are going to be this big or if its just this one. Its definitely more interesting and I love the paper they used to print on.

Congrats Mark!
Your blog now is in every household, not only in Kuwait but in the whole region as well… next worldwide :)
btw, I talked to a Thouq insider and he told me that this issue is just for the magazine’s anniversary[special issue]. But they are open for some feedback and suggestions, if most of the clients like the size then they will continue to do it next issue, if not then they will certainly return to the original size.

Woohoho!! Congratulations!! we are waiting for your review!!

Finished syncing. Everything is setup nicely like my previous iphone. I just enabled tethering and am connected and posting this now via tethering. I think this was one of the most important features I was after. My favorite game Fast Food boots up like 3 times faster than before and no more memory warnings. Everything else seems the same. Camera is much better and has auto focus. Thats all for now.

I had two photo shoots for this magazine.
It was my first time to participate in the Kuwaiti media.
In fact I have both Thouq’s and ur blogs on my bookmarks.
I visit them together every time I wanna know what’s goin’ on in Q8.
