Social Networking and Qatar Living
By inijames on Thu, 15/05/2008 - 10:06pm
I am currently writing an article on social networking for Qatar Today - with a particular focus on Qatar - and I wanted to ask the Qatar Living community what Qatar Living means to you.
In particular:
- What do you use it for? i.e. for meeting people, socialising, making contacts, promoting a website, selling/buying things e.t.c.
- How often do you use it for (daily e.t.c.) and for how long do you use it for?
- How important is it to you?
- Do you use any other forums/social networking sites?
Thanks in advance for any answers!

also make sure you check out some of the active groups (http://www.qatarlivi...) - the Social Group, Volunteers Group, Photography Group and Filipino Groups come to mind as fantastic examples of how social networking on Qatar Living helps people in Qatar get together in real life.

QL Rocks! ...I use QL all the time to get info on anything to do with Qatar, by far the best resource on the web for info on Qatar.
When I just moved to Doha the rental prices went sky high, however through QL classifieds, I managed to get an apartment at a below market rate, which was fantastic- I managed to save quite a bit in rental. I also managed to get a great deal on second hand car from an expat that was leaving doha.
Oh yeah, I also won a DVD from one of the competitions that was run on QL :-)

QL, as I perceive it, is an ...QL, as I perceive it, is an ongoing process which should remain with each and every individual at all times.
I do not think that QL is something that one achieves like anyone would achieve success.
Rather I think QL is more similar to the blood (yummy). In other words, it is something no one can do without. :-)
QL is something which should always be part of us.
You probably don't get what I mean, imagine someone needing help, with an aid (someone to help) they can achieve what they need help for, hence the desert are hard to pass, but can be achieved by support from others.
I check QL forums first when online, I feel secure in the fact that whatever problem I may have, QL forums will be there to give me a helping hand.
And to share the knowledge that I slowly gain to help those who that need it.
First time when I am serious in QL
< Sorry QL's , after this ...no more! :) >
