    I”ve been getting A LOT of parking tickets around Beirut. So I thought that I might as well be courteous with the policemen working hard on adding the tickets. So I created those stickers!

    Newspaper that reads: "Expect most innovative innovation of innovations"

    Newspaper that reads: "The Chosen product to be announced today by Steve Jobs"

    Steve Jobs says: "I was out of ideas, so I thought, let's mix what we already have. We have a laptop, and we have an iphone. Let's make something in between".

    Hands shown "baking" the iphone "so we took the iphone and we enlarged it like that"

    And voila! The iPad is born! Incredible!

    Maya, disappointed: "I just wasted this pop corn for nothing!"

    what we learned today: when something requires THAT MUCH marketing before its announcement, it must mean the product in itself is not enough to convince. Steve Jobs must be mocking us - in my humble opinion. iPass this sophistication tool and stick to my dear macbook.

    As you can see I was disappointed by yesterday’s announcement, let alone how the name was ridiculed on Twitter later on with the #iTampon jokes. Anyway, I was expecting all this because of all the media buzz. Have a great day! 🙂 And here’s a song for you (that I heard on the radio yesterday and reminded me of the old days :D)
