Mobile Phone that runs on AAA Batteries (coming in India, Pakistan a potential market).
We know the condition of load shedding in Pakistan, India is also more or less the same as long as the rural areas are confirmed. Doesn’t it just feel weird when you cannot charge your phone and are cut off from the world, your small business or your children due to electricity shortage or suspension. It is all about to end for indian’s atleast with this phone solely Targeted to our kind of market on the other side of the border.

Fly By – Pakistani game on Facebook seeks your attention.
Posted by umair in Pakistan, Social Media on February 22, 2010
Long gone are the days when getting marketing momentum and getting people to know about your product was a pain difficult to subside. Today with the power of blogs and social media websites nothing is impossible. Codeweek a website from Pakistan concentrating on Tech and Software industry noted the first Pakistani flash based game for social networks and Facebook. People have been signing on with speed and i think we as Pakistanis need to join it, play it and share it with friends so that Web Sketchers the Pakistani Developers feel supported and go on doing the good work, promoting Pakistan and its software industry as a learned one.

Nandos Australia Slaps Shahid Afridi in the face as he munches on the ball.
click to enlarge
Shahid Afridi has given all the world something to laugh at Pakistani Cricket about. Although Pakistani people are the most passionate about Cricket what i am seeing is the death of a sport that i love. Children are more skewed towards Football and clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea or Roma.
The politics and stupidity in Pakistani Cricket although effected the game but also gave a company like Nandos which is known for its bold advertisement to make fun of him and our nations most loved game in Australia. Although to me as i am a Marketing person to some extent, i think it is great advertisement and mock strategy. Anyways have a look for yourself the latest advertisement targeted at Afridi. All i can do is laugh, pretty amazing and cunning.
So Shahid Afridi you just made it into an advertisement for free. Keep munching on the ball maybe you get called into some Apple selling advertisement or eat lots of fruits social campaign by the govrnment.

Holy SMS written by Nadeem F Paracha a Cultural Critic
Pakistanis love emailing and text messaging quotes from hadiths and assorted religious paraphernalia. I usually ignore such messages because in my mind I imagine a holy punter who is convinced that each email or SMS of his is getting him that much closer to booking a cosy place in heaven. The truth is that this (albeit irritating) activity is actually better than a holy bum blowing himself up in public to find that same place in Paradise.
