Africa Roundup

In an earlier blog I mentioned William Kamkwaba the 19 year old who I met in Tanzania at the TED Global Conference. Through the help of some TED fellows he has set up his own blog now and you can see for yourself what he has been doing. Truly an inspiring story.

Other stories grabbing my attention include.

Hash comments on blogging platforms in South Africa and Kenya.
Benin gets the Zambian Presidents views on Aid vs Trade.
Emeka brings another angle to the table on the same debate.
And yet another word on the issue from the Anansi Chronicles.
Juliana lends some support to Bono over the African Vanity Fair issue.
In Timbuktu Chronicles Emeka writes about Human ATM’s. Innovation!!
Ethan waxes lyrical on wind power and finally
Afrigadget reports on the knife sharpening bicycle in Nairobi.

    David,
    Thank you for sharing your insights on TEDGlobal. I shared my perspective on TEDGlobal earlier this month.

    You should consider participating in the Blogging to Fame contest if you have time or inclination!

    peace, Villager
