The Ruler of Dubai added that social networking can be an important means for development, knowledge, and innovation, and when used positively can motivate people towards progress, and stir minds and hearts towards unity and coalition, saying, "We shall always focus on using social media channels for the good of mankind, for collaboration, enlightenment, and as a source of information."

The study revealed that the majority of Sheikh Mohammed's twitter followers are from the GCC, closely followed by Egypt, the US, and the UK.
Follower numbers can be faked and or purchased.

Dude looks just like Frank Zappa, back in the day.
Some Zappa, but a lot of Eugene Levy from 2nd City TV in Canada. I used to watch it in Michigan on the French Tv Station; Channel 78. from Toronto, Ontario.
I don’t know. He looks like a real pecker head to me. Just saying.
