When you offer a service to a customer, you have to make sure it fulfills his needs and he is happy about it all the time. This is the only way to survive in this financial crisis.
A few days back, Google has apologized for traffic jam for one hour that leads to a slowness in its services. This is not a strange action from a company like Google, but it is a lesson for our companies that the services got an outage for hours or may be days without even admitting that.
قامت مؤخراً مجموعة PSD [وهي مجموعة قام بإنشائها طلاب و خريجي كلية الحاسب الآلي بجامعة الملك فهد للبترول والمعادن] بنشر كتاب أطلق عليه أرقام تقنية E-numbers. الكتاب يضم العديد من الأفكار و المعلومات القيمة، وقد تم الإستعانه بالأرقام من 1 إلى 20 لجعل قراءة الكتاب أكثر تشويقاً. ما يعيب هذا الكتاب هو استخدام الترجمة الحرفية لكثير من المصطلحات الإنجليزية [الحقيقة هذي الطريقة الوحيده للترجمة، لكن حينما تترجم Object Oriented بكائنية المنحى أشعر بخيبة أمل تجاه لغتنا الغالية].
الكتاب يستحق القراءة، ولا يأخذ أكثر من نصف ساعة للمرور على جميع أفكارة و مواضيعة. الشكر لمجموعة PSD على هذا المنتج الرائع؛ بإنتظار إبداعات جديده في عالم التقنية.

What the hell’s going on !!
This is what I feel nowadays. Last three weeks I spent 12 to 14 hours a day at work preparing for Atheeb service launch, and making sure everything is ready on its place. This means I did not have a time to set with my family and friends, I did not spend much time in my hobbies and the things I enjoy, and I even did not have the time to have enough sleep.
At this time and being in situation like this, so many concepts and tricks make a huge different. For instance, the time management; every time I hear this phrase I said “I don’t have a time to do my duties, how I’m going to find a time to do silly and useless things trying to manage my time !!, I will waste more time with no reason !?”.
I think I need to reconsider my beliefs, and start to find a solution for the situation I have been through.
Great lecture about the time management byRandy Pausch; thanks to Abdullah, the web portal guy :):
