A Better Life Beckons In Africa

Story in the Washington Post about African immigrants moving back home after basically getting tired of the 24-7 hustle of life in the West and tired of worrying about the recession.

I’m definitely seeing this a lot with my friends / peers – you do give up luxuries and there are frustrations but you […]

Quick Hits (easy on a Sunday morning edition)

Feed & spam issues fixed

My feed issues should be resolved and you shouldn’t see any spam now on your mobile browser.

– Txteagle – really cool service that is […]

Anti-Bono

Dambisa Moyo, author of “Dead Aid” is featured in the New York Times Magazine. I’m feeling her riff on celebrities and Africa (add Nicholas Kristoff to the gag list), though I must say we as Africans are not exactly helping our cause when we do things like steal maize meant for famine relief and have […]

Quick Hits

– Wherecamp Africa being held in Nairobi on April 4th.

– Kenyan religious leaders get their act together and tell it like it is. This is not an insignificant move, given how much influence religion/ religious leaders carry in Kenyan society. One only wishes they (the leaders) could have shown such sense in the […]
