I've read with great interest your story and I really liked it. You made a good description of what Dubai is, analyzing the issue from different perspectives.
Keep up the good job.

I've been to Dubai a few times and I totally agree about the lonely part. I think I spend most of my time wandering around alone or just listening to my walkman etc and doing a lot of soul searching there. If you aren't from there it does have such a strange other-worldly feeling to it. I kinda like that though...

I'm a pilot, and I go to Dubai pretty often. The key to having unfettered Internet access there is to use a VPN. As soon as I fire up my laptop there, I set up an encrypted tunnel back to the U.S., and then using the Internet there is the same as if I were in the U.S.
They block, among other things, Skype, Twitter, and Jaiku, all of which I depend on when I'm traveling.

Interesting post about Dubai... It would be great if you also do a similar research about Pakistan.
Thanks!
