    The popular micro-blogging site Twitter has been banned today in Pakistan under direct orders from Raja Parvez Ashraf who’s the Minister for Information. The ban isn’t limited to just PTCL (the country’s biggest ISP) as users of almost all the ISPs of Pakistan report the inability to access the site.

    According to ProPakistani’s sources the ban was issued in regard to blasphemous content being shared and displayed on the site. PTA is reported to have contacted Twitter and even Facebook and warned them that if even one page containing blasphemous content was read by users in Pakistan the website would be banned.

    No official release has been posted yet but we’ll keep you posted.

A simple Cydia tweak will add a handy button to your on board twitter App to help making your #NowPlayingTrack known among your friends and followers by the single press of a button and like every other Cydia Tweak this guide will show you a VERY easy way to install the tweak and how to run it after installation

    1. Run Cydia off your jailbroken iDevice (iPhone or iPod Touch).
    2. From Cydia navigate to Search.
    3. In “Search” type the following without the quotation marks ( “ “ ) “com.w00tylab.twitplaying”.
    4. You will be shown a single result bearing the icon of a power drill, tap it and open it.

    8.

    9. As long as your music player is running in the background (you can verify if its running or not by double tapping the home button and swiping right till you reach the end of all current running apps) you will be able to share what song you are listening without the fear of mistyping the song name / band name or the artist name and also include the #NowPlayingTrack with the name of your song.
