The US government is planning to spend $50 million on propaganda for Pakistani audiences. They are calling it a new "communications strategy" and will involve the following:
</p>
<ol>
<li>Supporting media organisations that are favourable to the americans</li>
<li>The setting up of a "media monitoring group" that will put its own spin on any negative news about the US.</li>
</ol>

vnStat is a very simple utility that can track the amount of bandwidth used by your web server. It works by monitoring the received and transmitted bytes counters of your network interface and logging the data in a database. In this post I look at how to install vnStat and a web-based front end on a CentOS 5 Linux web server.

I prefer to receive my money in the form of checks that I deposit in a foreign currency account. </p> 
  <p>A foreign currency account allows me to keep my money in US dollars, Euros or some other foreign country's currency. Almost all banks in Pakistan support Foreign Currency or FC accounts. In this post I take a look at the advantages and disadvantage of opening a foreign currency account from the point of view of an Internet entrepreneur.</p> <br /><a href="http://abdussamad.com/archives/146-Foreign-currency-account-for-webmasters-in-Pakistan.html#extended">Continue reading Foreign currency account for webmasters in Pakistan</a>
