Crazy Guide to the Internet

Apparently there are a whole lot of Muslims enraged and offended at Wikipedia, because there is an image of Muhammed in his Wikipedia entry.

They are  demanding that Wikipedia  remove the offending images, with an online petition that’s already gathered thousands of signatures: Care2 : The Petition Site : Removal of the Pics.

Removal of the Pics of Muhammad from Wikipedia
Target:To tell wikipedia editors to respect other peoples religion
Sponsored by: Faraz Ahmad

In Islam pictures or Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and other holly figures are not allowed, but on wikipedia they has published some pictures that are showing not only a body with white face but an image that has a complete face.. that is even not allowed by SHITAT fact of Islam.
i request all my brothers and sisters to sign this petition so we can tell wikipedia to remove them.

Hopefully Wikipedia’ll refuse to budge as these people need to get over themselvs.

Tomorrow is the biggest day in the primary presidential race thus far, and we’ve created a central location to follow the action on video. We’re pulling in video clips from voters, candidates, and news organizations across the country on a Google Map as part of our You Choose ‘08 platform.

This is the first presidential election in which YouTube has given voters the same power to broadcast the events as the big broadcasters have. Already we’re seeing terrific content uploaded to the map as voters in 24 different states prepare for the polls. Seeing all these great videos on one map gives the most diverse narrative of the campaign trail that we’ve ever seen. Scroll across the map and zoom in to see videos from your area, and keep an eye out for gems like these:

Stay tuned to You Choose ‘08 after Super Tuesday as we will continue to bring more and more great political video content from voters, candidates, and news organizations as the political drama thickens.
