Beauty of the Mind
I have elaborated before in my blog entries about the importance of using modesty of the mind since I believe that The Almighty Allah (swt) -- GOD -- grant us them in order to use perfectly for a good purpose.

Beauty of the Mind
If you wish, you can read my previous posts for more detailed insights; however I want to share this video with you that smartly illustrates what I meant in terms of the beauty of a mind, or in other simple words, the importance of using our human intellect to reach better communication between people.
Disclaimer: I am not into the blonds vs brunettes jokes because I neither believe in generalization nor how people might be intelligent or dump depending on their race and faith as I see this as another type of sexism in our world that we used to live with. Furthermore, it is always up to everybody to make his (and her) decision in choosing the kind of beauty they prefer. For that matter, I end my elaborations with citing a famous quotation!

Alexa in BloggingLand
I enjoy blogging technical posts from time to time although it is out of my niche in order to break the routine and to give you time-out from my thoughts, so celebrate my dears like you do either in “Eid” and “Christmas” and it is a second technical post in row after the previous one so Hurray my friends!

Alexa in BloggingLand
In a previous post, I announced reaching blog milestone for comments which is not bad for me and told you about spam comments too. I have stopped worrying about Number of Comments I receive, PageRank of my blog and domain, Alexa Rank of my domain, and all those type of worries that usually irritate other dear bloggers on the blogoshpere (or as I call it bloggingland) since I am concerned more about the quality of the content presented which means to blog not to blah! in simple words.
Alexa Rank from Two Angles
Nevertheless, I came across two posts over blogs for two of my on-line friends where they handled the Alexa ranking issue in two different and contradicting point of view. I am not as much interested in discussing their opinions as in referring you to their posts to read their geek tips from two angles as they presented in details and this is why I choose the title as Alexa in BloggingLand, so please take a look at:
- The 3 Ways to Increase Your Alexa Ranking over The Extreme John Blog by John;
- Reasones for Why Alexa Ranking is Useless over TechJaws.com by Frank.
I have to mention that my way of not-to-worry about this issue has nothing to do either with being convinced or not convinced with such techniques in the blogosphere (or as I say the bloggingland) and websites in general since I am aware about the importance however this is my personal way to handle things.
Finally, I am happy with this awesome blogging software: WordPress so I might blog about this later.
