Pakistan: Blog-O-Manic · Global Voices
Omer Alvie

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to this week's round up of Pakistani blog posts.  As you can well imagine, the task of collecting relevant articles (of interest) for your perusal is not any easy one. One has to skim through many sites of pointless verbiage before something of interest is sighted. The whole process can take many months. Actually that is a slight exaggeration, it actually takes only an hour or so but believe me it isn't all fun. “Excruciating Browsing (EB)” is what I call it.
EB is a rather precise technique devised by yours truly after many years of internet surfing. The modus operandi is not for amateur internet researchers and can result in bodily harm if not followed correctly. The EB method basically comprises opening 8 browser windows, and then viewing multiple sites simultaneously. All this is done while eating a large bag of Tortilla chips ensuring that the bits do not fall in the gaps in between the keys on your keyboard. The research comes to an end when you have finished your bag of Extra Cheesy Doritos.
Without much further ado, I present to you the result of my recent EB:
Windmill rather interestingly compares Lahore to his favourite city; Meandering writes about reward-oriented nurturing; Opinionated Voice does an Anti-Islam round-up; Thatta Kedona celebrates the birthday of the founder of the Village Of Dolls; Politically Incorrect rants about Teenage Attitudes; Random Thoughts contemplates the price of his apparel; Hasan Mubarak presents the symptoms of internet addiction; Venial Sin tells it like it is; Anwaar Hussain (Fountainhead), my dear cyber friend, presents the Forward to his upcoming book; and finally, Help-Pakistan.com (online campaign founded by Teeth Maestro) makes its first monetary contribution to TCF's relief funds for Pakistan's earth quake victims.
I shall bid you all adieu now, as I have to vacuum the crumbs off my laptop keyboard.
