What is fuelyoursenses.qa?

25 Nov, 2009  Uncategorized

I for one liked the new colorful billboards around Qatar with something that had one word and then the website.

Now I’m the type of person that if I dont know what something is, it’s not my top priority to go and investigate. However the third time I saw the billboard I figured, ‘why not?’ and went to fuelyoursenses.qa

At first I tried with my iPhone (but since it doesn’t have flash support I had to wait until I got to my pc). To be honest most sites should always have an html alternative just in case. After entering the site it looks fun and colorful. Enter your name, and then it asks me if I want to use my ‘voice’ or ‘webcam’. I have to pass on that since I dont know what this is for.

After it finishes loading, I just see a count-down and little box that displays whatever I type in an animation. No explanation as to what to do. Clicking on Help says that this is top secret….

So… does anyone know what this is about? I know that .qa is only for government sites.

Freedom of Expression

    Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which the Qatari Government is a signatory of states: Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any medias and regardless of any frontiers.

    The Emiri Decision Number 86 of the year 2007 on the establishment of the Doha Free Information Centre marked yet another step towards establishing a State of rights and freedom of speech. The decision stipulated that the Centre be a non-profit organization, headquartered in Doha City, and have the authority to establish other affiliated centres inside and outside Qatar. It is worth mentioning that His Highness the Emir issued a decision in 1998 annulling the ministry of information, giving birth to a new era of freedom of speech where censorship was removed from local media.
