2011 In Review: 4 Innovative Products We Like in Egypt
A lot happened in the Middle East over the course of 2011, revolutions started in Tunisia, Egypt and still in action in other countries, 2011 was a momentous year that no one could have ever foreseen.
Technology in general and especially social media played a major role in the revolutions happening in the Middle East but despite the economic fallback, Egyptians managed to work through it and release a number of innovative products that we found very interesting.
Law3andakDam:
Law3andakDam is an online service that matches blood donors and patients based on location and blood type. Given what was happening during the last 6 months in countries like Egypt, twitter was filled with requests for blood at different hospitals, and we feel this site adds value to people who need blood donations.
Bey2ollak:
Bey2ollak is a community based traffic information service aiming to keep track of the status of all major roads. It’s a must have for people travelling from the outskirts of Cairo in New Cairo and 6th of October.
