			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>My meeting with the Great Jordanian Entrepreneur &amp; 1st Arab Internet Millionaire: Khaled Jabasini, A success story deserves mentioning</strong></p>
<p><img src="file:///C:/Users/Malik/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-3.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" style="margin-top: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px;" title="kjs" src="../wp-content/uploads/kjs.jpg" alt="kjs" width="231" height="438" /></p>
<p>I was lucky to meet this great guy in the Social Media Forum during my business trip to Dubai &amp; Abu Dhabi, he achieved a great success that really makes him a great model for all of Arab entrepreneurs, Khaled Jabasini, the 1<sup>st</sup> Internet Millionaire in the Arab world after selling his company e-Marketing MENA to Maktoob group by 20 million dollars before the Maktoob-Yahoo deal.</p>
<p>He worked since 1993 in many unique industries such like: 2D &amp; 3D Animation, Film Production, Web design &amp; development &amp; more, in many countries such like: Jordan, Saudi Arabia &amp; Qatar.</p>
<p>In 2000 he joined Maktoob team &amp; was the founder of Saudi Arabia branch, and the Director of Advertising in that time, and then he moved to NetAdvantage  Online advertising company in Saudi Arabia too.</p>
<p>He started the dream in 2005: e-Marketing MENA was launched to change the meaning of online advertising in the Arab world regarding the publishers, the audience &amp; the spent of advertisers.</p>
<p>e-Marketing MENA, was acquired by maktoob group which became Jabbar internet group now and they re-branded it to iKoo.</p>
<p>Best part that I loved about  my discussion with Khaled is how he had that goal of helping webmasters &amp; publishers to get a profit that can help them continue &amp; grow which means improving the Arabic eb content on the long term, and as we see that what really happened <img src='http://www.tootblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I would also love to admit that in spite that Khaled is a millionaire, he is generous, up to the ground, a family loving guy, a business professional &amp; a man with a creative mind <img src='http://www.tootblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>You can soon communicate with him through: http://www.khaledjabasini.com</p>

<p>Eid ul-Fitr* (Arabic: عيد الفطر ‘Īdu l-Fiṭr‎), often abbreviated to Eid, is a Muslim holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting. Eid is an Arabic word meaning &#8220;festivity&#8221;, while Fiṭr means &#8220;to break fast&#8221;; and so the holiday symbolizes the breaking of the fasting period. It is celebrated after the end of the Islamic month of Ramadan, on the first day of Shawwal.</p>
<p>Eid ul-Fitr lasts for three days of celebration and is sometimes also known as the &#8220;Smaller Eid&#8221; (Arabic: العيد الصغير al-‘īdu ṣ-ṣaghīr‎) as compared to the Eid ul-Adha that lasts four days and is called the &#8220;Greater Eid&#8221; (Arabic: العيد الكبير al-‘īdu l-kabīr‎).</p>
<p>Muslims are commanded by the Qur&#8217;an to complete their fast on the last day of Ramadan and then recite the Takbir all throughout the period of Eid[Qur'an 2:185 (Translated by Shakir)].</p>
<p>*Through WikiPedia</p>
<p>Maybe you would ask: Why did you use Mashroom as a symbol of Fitr Eid, in Arabic Fitr word has two meanings: Eating after Fasting &amp; Mashroom, so we use Happy Mashroom as a since of humar, hope u liked it <img src='http://www.tootblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>I was watching T.V. since it was Eid Alfitr Holiday &amp; you have a plenty of thime to spent when this movie was shown on one of the channels, I think FOX MOVIES, I know you would say it is a very old movie but am not a person who spent a lot of time watching T.V. and more I rather spenting my time working <img src='http://www.tootblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Anyway The Tagline for the film is:</strong><br />
It is 2013. War has crippled the Earth. Technology has been erased. Our only hope is an unlikely hero.<br />
Plot:Post-apocalyptic America. What begins as a con game becomes one man&#8217;s quest to rebuild civilization by resuming postal service</p>
<p>When I red more about the film, I noticed that it won 5 awards &amp; 5 nominations.</p>
<p>I really recommend watching it (if you didn&#8217;t already <img src='http://www.tootblog.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  )</p>

He was 50.</p>
<p>Since I am a social media activist, such like facebook.com &amp; twitter.com, I posted a status update about his death news, the feedback &amp; comments were sometimes really strange &amp; chocking!</p>
<p>I don’t give a shit if they said that he was a freak or a child abuser or whatever! I don’t give a shit if he announced his Islam or he remained as a Christian! what I know that he is dead now, after he succeeded in reaching the chair of the king in his field! no matter they liked him or not. he made it!</p>
<p>Maybe Michael is dead in real world, but at least he is alive in the hearts of millions of music lovers.</p>
