A while back, it was agreed that only non-commercial sites would be linked to on UAE community blog. (Obviously Google ads etc are no problem - just not actual business sites).
I received the following site for submission and I think it's fine, but I just wanted to run it past people here in the spirit of democracy:
Computer Consultant - despite the title, the writer appears to be blogging about tech issues in general, and not specifically promoting his business or services.
Assuming no objections, it will be added to the General Blogroll.
On a similar subject: opinion has been expressed that some blogs linked to on here contain offensive/racist content. While freedom of speech is generally encouraged, if there are a significant number of people objecting to a specific blog who make their views known (either in comments or a new blog post here, or privately to me by email) then we will open up discussion about removing those links.

Oh that will never happen - except in the most extreme circumstances as an emergency measure, if its content was so illegal/obscene as to threaten everyone here by association.
In which case it would still be put up here for debate, but temporarily de-listed until general consensus decided it was ok.
My priority is to encourage maximum free speech without endangering anyone's privacy and safety here.
And to be as democratic as possible, which is why a whole heap of people have been adminned, so they can also invite UAE bloggers and rapidly delete offensive comments, if need be.
A ducking stool is called for, methinks.
