Egypt – Internet Once More

(I stand corrected. I did not realize that the internet had been turned by on in Egypt a few days ago. I will not remove this post because this view did come after the announcement of the resignation of the Egyptian president.)

Egypt has been without the internet for sometime because their now former president, Hosni Mubarak, had ordered a discontinuation of it for the country.  After 3 weeks of protest, Mubarak resigned according to the will of the Egyptian people.  The internet did not take long to be activated either.  Not long after Mubarak’s resignation I found this on my site, my first view of the day.
