banned interview with president bush
Friday, July 13th, 2007some neat videos
Thursday, April 26th, 2007this video from steve jobs' stanford commencement speech (2005) was pretty good:
in addition, the following videos are worth watching (in my opinion):
- killing us softly - an excellent talk about how today's advertising schemes are harmful to women and to the society in general (pictures of ads included, so muslim guys may just want to listen rather than watch).
- don't buy stuff you can't afford - a short, yet hilarious, snl skit.
- pirates of silicon valley - this movie is good for cs majors who want to know how apple/microsoft started.
while most of those were posted in my google reader shared items, no one checks those, do they? :p
so small, part 2…
Wednesday, October 11th, 2006in light of the previous post, i saw an amazing 7 minute astronomy video on youtube (or should i say 'gootube'?) talking about how tiny the earth really is.
these days, during ramadan, i've heard people quote a hadith several times that i hadn't remembered hearing before that is really quite spectacular - the rough meaning based on what i remember is (i could have forgotten - i tried to find out which hadith book this came from but couldn't find it, if someone can point me to where i'd really appreciate it), "the worldly heaven in comparison to the second heaven is like a ring in a desert, and the second heaven to the third is like a ring in a desert, and the third to the fourth is like a ring in a desert, and the fourth to the fifth is like a ring in a desert, and the fifth to the sixth is like a ring in a desert, and the sixth to the seventh is like a ring in a desert, and the seventh to the kursiy is like a ring in a desert, and the kursi to the 3arsh (or throne) of Allah (SWT) is like a ring in a desert."
wsalams.
nice nasheed on youtube
Monday, October 2nd, 2006one of my friends told me about this nice nasheed video (islamic song) on youtube - interestingly enough, i saw it being played on tv while i was flipping through the channels the following day... and i made a youtube account so i can use the favorites list and added it as my first favorite on there 
by the way, who sings this, does he mean mishari rashid?
edit - i was going to put a direct embedding of the video here, but seems as though i have to jump through some hoops to get wordpress to do this. so the video link is here.

amazing television commercial
Sunday, February 12th, 2006this is one of the best islamic reminders i've seen in the form of a very short television commercial (you can right click and do save as if just clicking it doesn't work). if you don't speak arabic, the verses being recited are in surat al-qiyama (75:26-35). the text at the end reads: "اقم صلاتك... قبل مماتك" - which means, "establish your prayer... before your death."
