We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

YouTube video viewers over 500K!

Update #12 · Feb 20, 2013 · comment

Hi everyone,

It has been a long time since we updated you with the latest news. 

Although EL Sajjadah progress is pretty slow at the moment and we are still looking for individual investors to support our project, we thought it would be nice to let you know that our YouTube video is doing pretty well in the virtual realm.

As of yesterday, it exceeded 500K viewers and still counting. 

At this point, we need your help on something particular: There are non-English comments below the YouTube video and some of our supporters pointed us out the fact that some of those comments are inappropriate and/or irrelevant. 

Can you please help us out cleaning these comments by clicking the triangle next to those inappropriate/irrelevant comments and choosing 'flag for spam'?

We will update you as we have more progress! 

Many Thanks.

BBC LIVE + Logo sketches

Kickstarters,

Firstly, BBC live interview went really well! Here is the link you can listen to it (approx for 3mins: starting 0:40:09, ending 0:43:00).

Secondly, as promised, below are our first logo trials. We went through several approaches: modern, scripty, italic, etc. We are pretty excited about them and struggling to decide which path to follow. Do you want to help?

Please let us know what you think.

Many Thanks.

Hello BBC!

Update #8 · Jul 23, 2012 · comment

People of Kickstarter,

As of this morning, we are on BBC News website! There is a nice video there, which will give you further insight into EL Sajjadah and our studio. 

Also, we just received a call from the nice people of BBC and they asked us to talk about EL Sajjadah on their NewsHour programme 20:50 BST. And we said YES :) 

This is going to be a LIVE programme and you will be able to listen to it here at World Service Radio at BBC News Radio website. 20:50 BST tonight, it is.

Spread the word and let people (whoever wants to get more details about EL Sajjadah) know about it. 

Happy listening and let us know what you think about it after the show...
