Twitter and Oman

I would like to thank the creators of Twitter for creating such a wonderful tool that boosted local businesses and websites in Oman. I am talking about Kiwi cafe and OmanTippers.com as an example, both started up not even 6 months and are famous spot.

Thanks to ReTweet (RT) feature, it spreading like fire. People are sharing their experiences, feedback and mentioning them. Thanks to Twitter, Oman became well known country not just a neighboring country to United Arab Emirates or Dubai (a.k.a. the sin city).

Thank you to the users from Oman for spreading the word, without you'll,  our local businesses wouldn't have boomed fast. Thank you all for using other social media such as Facebook and instagram.

Omani Cuisine

Hello everyone! A friend of mine (Ahmed Al Yahyai -some of you might know him) and I started a new blog on FOOD. We usually cook over at my place every other weekend, so we thought that it would be cool to post our recipes online. All the photographs that you see are of food we actually made, no, I am not kidding, and yes, we're pretty good. :P Check out the Omani Cuisine here http://www.omanicuisine.com/ and feel free to send me any feedback.
