  • Don’t Block the Blog & Google

    Don’t Block the Blog (DBTB) is happy to announce to the Pakistani bloggers that some serious progress has been made during the last few of days regarding the internet censorship (blogspot ban ) issue in Pakistan. Google Inc.’s key representative (Policy Analyst) has been in direct contact with DBTB members in reference to the blogspot…

  • Pakistan Blogging Situation – Update

    For the past few days especially yesterday I have exchanged a number of emails around the globe to figure out a solution for the deteriorating blogging condition in Pakistan which started a few days back as reported by Don’t Block the Blog, Press Release of 3rd February and also my blog, I have a few…

  • Bloggers Pakistan gets a Face-lift

    After many days of procrastination, I finally got down to doing a revamp of the blog aggregator that we run at bloggers.pk. Barely two months back in early December I quit on the ever faithful wordpress CMS system simply because it was not designed to be an efficient aggregator. I moved away from WordPress and…

  • Pakistan Blog Alert ! Do Not Upgrade to Blogger Beta

    The Don’t Block the Blog campaign would like to issue a Blog Alert to all Pakistani bloggers on blogspot.com to resist the temptation to upgrade to Blogger Beta, the improved version of the Google Blogging platform. It apparently seems that once the blogger upgrades to Blogger Beta, all hell breaks loose as the proxy servers…

  • Supreme Court questions Malik’s Ban

    Cricket Bloggers of Pakistan: The Supreme Court of Pakistan has questioned the life-ban imposed by Pakistan Cricket Board on Saleem Malik back in 2000. The court has for now delayed the hearing for a week upon the request of the PCB lawyer as he would need a little time to provide sufficient proof as to…

  • Bypass the Blogspot Ban via SSH

    The woes for Pakistani Internet users continue, it seems as if we have slowly learned to live life half crippled with no one bothering to have a second look at us. Blogspot has been blocked in Pakistan for around eleven months with absolutely no sign of relief, but despite all hurdles created by our own…

  • Shoaib, The Spit Bull

    Cricket Blogger of Pakistan: The Shoaib Akhar saga continues, it seems the most probable reason for his return to Pakistan is the heated discussion he had with Bob Woolmer during the second day of the Second Test Match between South Africa and Pakistan. TV coverage just saw a heated discussion between the two, it then…

  • Nominate Edhi for Nobel Peace Prize 2007

    There is an effort around Pakistan to strongly put forth a petition to nominate Abdus Sattar Edhi for the 2007 Noble Peace Prize. Edhi simply needs no introduction and little can I say in his praise will do justice for the man who has lived his entire life for the poor in Pakistan. We have…

  • Cricket Bloggers of Pakistan

    I would like to announce the creation of Cricket Bloggers of Pakistan, it is just a blog created out of necessity since we felt an apparent absence of one concise place where bloggers from Pakistan can come and write about the Pakistani perspective on the world of cricket. There is little doubt that this blog…

  • Series-levelling victory by Pakistan at Port Elizabeth

    Guest Post: Dr. Haroon Qazi I would rate Pakistan as the most unpredictable team in the history of world cricket. Shoaib’s first innings spell and Inzamam’s 92 not out were out standing, and not to forget a superb spell by Asif in both innings. Although the team has match winning players, who can on their…

  • Silencing Saddam

    Its been barely two weeks since Saddam Hussein was sent to the gallows. There is not a soul on the earth who would have been sympathetic with this murderer but strangely after watching the ‘assassination’ haphazardly orchestrated by the American forces he may have potentially become a hero. I look beyond the jeering crowds, I…

  • Sidekick, Darrell Hair

    With great satisfaction I would like to report that the Darrell Hair saga continues. It seems that ICC desperately has the urge to employ Darrell Hair on its umpiring panel. It was announced today that Mr. Hair will officiate the triangular one-day series in involving Kenya, Scotland and Canada. You may recall that he had…

  • Waqar Resigns as Bowling Coach

    Waqar Younis who has been the bowling coach of the Pakistan Cricket team for approximately one year and today has announced his resignation from the job. It seems that PCB had limited his services as bowling coach for only the test matches which Pakistan was due to play in South African and not the One-Day…

  • Eid Mubarak & a Happy New Year

    I wish all my readers a very Happy Eid Mubarak and a joyful and exciting new year. Lets hope we can together make this new year be a more peaceful year for the entire world. As in tradition of my Eid-ul-Fitr post I have again initiated a blogroll of bloggers around the Pakistani Blogoshpere who…

  • Enlightened Moderation – My Ass !!!

    Over a number of years photographers have captured stunning pictures which have later turned into defining pictures for the year. This picture in my opinion quite easily summarize the moment of truth for the seven year regime of the Enlightened Moderation era enforced by Dictator Musharraf. It is a true representation of the Pakistani people…
