On Saturday a group of IT specialists held a anti government rally raising “geeky” signs and slogans. Tweep @JTheIslander [2], an IT geek himself, was on location and tweeted these photos showing some of the most creative signs:
@JTheIslander [3] chants: “IT Sinna o shia” plixi.com/p/81757795 [4]
“IT Sinna o Shia” is an IT flavoured rendition of another slogan used which means “Brothers, Sunna and Shia”

This banner looks similar to the dreaded “Site Blocked” page used when accessing a censored [7] page in Bahrain.
Geeks also expressed their feelings towards the current PM Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al-Khalifa through PHP code..
