Yussuf...you have done the right thing by asking the nomads here about HOBIO or OBBIO...we are Somalis after all, and that is a nomad town. I would gladly ask LadyFatima or Jaber to help this nomad on this topic. Nomads, let us be nice to each other... Thank You! Somalia Online Giving the nomads their piece of the net!

Maroodi Jeex: A Somaliland Alternative Journal ISSN 1097-3850.Issue number 10 (Fall 1998) MEMOIRS: THE UPROOTED NOMAD OF THE EARTH By Abdilahi Haji Mohamed* Ottawa, Canada "I was a typical Somali nomad who modestly in winter time when there was no rain and arrogantly in spring time when there was rain perceived himself - of course along with our beloved camels - as a species part of nature, in harmony with nature, but never a master of nature" "Life has its ups and downs" "The very nature of a nomad is mobility with survival skills but the survival skills one needs in the jungle world of New York are a lot different than those for the jungles of Africa" Our definition of a nomad ain't no different from that mentioned by the author. Play with your definition of a nomad, but we all(atleast most of us) must agree on couple of things Mobility (act of moving around). Survival skills. Love for our beloved camels. Arrogant (Think positive here!!!) What does it take to have the nomad title here? Well, when you reach a stage in your life where you have posted enough, we will recognize you a nomad. You have atleast shown some of the qualities needed...for example....SURVIVAL SKILLS. What we mean is that, if you can go against JABER, LF, HIBO, LS, NOWAAL, UNIXGURU and the rest of the nomads here before you give up on Somalia Online, then you are a nomad.... Love you all!!! In the mean time, I will move this topic to the CAMEL MILK DEBATE section because it is best suited there.

Since most of you here are poets, do you think that we should rename this forum to POETRY. Give me some feedback on this.

Sorry that we don't have a POETRY category of its own. You can always make a POETRY thread though. If we get enough votes on this issue, we might rename some of the less popular forums like the PUNTLAND to something else. Here is what we are thinking of... 1. POETRY 2. ROMANCE Thank You Somalia Online Team

Islamic content is under construction. We are working on it. Coming soon!!!!!!!!!

Do a search on Somalia Online. search for the term "Hoyga" or "suugaan" I am not sure how the above website will help you, but it does have some very interesting poetry. Again, we are still working on the many sections of Somalia Online including the search directory so please be patient if you don't find the website you are looking for. Thank you Somalia Online Team

Somali We are in the process of creating more Islamic content. Please bare with us. Also note that the site has only been up for couple of day and so far we have had more than 100 posts. Not bad for a days old website with no formal advertisment. Word of mouth is what we are using now and it seems to be paying off. Keep checking this part of the forum as we will be adding more Islamic content. Thank you Somalia Online Team
