Yesterday a main internet cable providing Egypt with internet sevice passing the Mediterranean sea has been cut and I don't know how ,why and why untill now after more than 36 hours we still can't browse Google
I can't communicate with the external world even by an email
So I talked to the customer support of my ADSL provider and he told me that internal sites in Egypt are working 100% like http://www.masrawy.com/new/ , http://masrawy.yallakora.com/, that is nice. But what about Google it is to me like air and water
Only 25% of the users can access the internet 'External to Egypt' with 1% of its normal speed
Anyway I remembered that I has a email account with link.net @ http://wmail.link.net/, I never found any use for this account until this moment.
So I'm composing this email from http://wmail.link.net/ now.
I discovered that it is very useful to have a email provider established in your local country that you can use for emergency use
But it is the time for testing its performance
I composed a message @ 9:30 CLT to my yahoo, gmail, hotmail, gawab, link accounts and I found that the "to link" message reached at the moment and I didn't get any failure notifications from the other destinations and when the internet will be back I will know when the other destinations go the message
So what if I want to blog now , I can do with the blogger mail account mmmzeg.-----@blogger.com.
So I'm sending the message now and I can't browse the blogger to see is it reached or not?. it's now 9:45 CLT, 7:45 GMT let's see when it will reach
