From couple of days I suggested in twitter that Egyptians use hashtag “#Egyptpowercuts” to report blackouts across the country , I did not know this idea was being implemented in an interactive better way in Al Masry Al Youm thanks to its web team.
“Darkness nights in Egypt” a new interactive service from Al Masry Al Youm where citizens can report power cuts to the website whether through phone or email or twitter or form in order to documents the case.
- You can call them on 0227980100
- You can send an email on By to kahraba@almasry-alyoum.com
- You can send an tweet with the following hashtags #EgyptPowerCuts or #Kahraba
- You can fill this form.
Hats off to the web team of Al Masry Al Youm and there wonderful idea.
