Contracts and Subcontracting: ICT projects
by Duncan Thuku 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

Guys, I am a member of this list. I find this list very resourceful. Just a request. Could you be having projects that you can subcontract to me? I am a techie, confined in a wheelchair. I have been looking for a job, which you all know is quite a challenge, especially due to access challenges - buildings, stereotypes, etc- issues that I don't want to dwell on - I want to look forward. I can work from home and deliver, since I have a laptop and internet connection. Waiting to read your responses. Duncan Thuku

This video (and many others on YouTube) get a lot more interesting - or annoying, depending on your taste - when you click on the football icon toward the lower right hand corner of the video (4th icon from the right) ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lP0CmEA6PA Cheers, - Chris

Well, >Dude, I tell you this firewall is devilishly efficient at what it >does! I >hate it with a passion, They used it back in campus and was always greeted with that splash image of website restricted. However, after afew years in campus, like everything else, its beatable. Just learn how to configure it well. Just saying. _tyrus

Hehehe.....It had an ARP spoofing and DDoS hole. The campus couldnt hear anything about an upgrade in the firmware so....tough luck. Some of us had cleared all our assignments and had interesting things to do :) -tyrus On Thu, 24 Jun 2010 16:11:05 +0300 Phares Kariuki <pkariuki(a)gmail.com> wrote: >@henry send an email to the contact given.

KTN Tech Junkie
by Larry Madowo 24 Jun '10

24 Jun '10

Good people, Just thought I'd share this with you. KTN is launching Kenya's first tech show next week Wednesday at 9.50pm. We're about all things tech but given our mass market appeal, nothing too technical. Basically, tech in English, if you get the drift. If you watch KTN, you might have seen our teaser http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpYtFlZyaR4 This has taken years of planning and putting it together, convincing and all that. Putting together a weekly half-hour show on prime time on nothing but technology is not one of the easiest things, especially in this country. But that is the challenge the production team and myself have taken upon ourselves. But we'd love to hear from you, the real techies (not wannabe techies like myself). We'd like ideas on what you'd like to see on the show. The Skunkociety has loads of great initiatives, projects, ideas and stuff that we'd like to give the national platform and influence of KTN. We'd also like feedback on the show once it airs. We'll avail most of it online, and repeat it on Saturday afternoon (yeah I know the Mexico v France game is on at the time) Its still at a beta stage right now but we will appreciate whatever shreds of info, ideas, suggestions, feedback, contacts that we can get. After all, Tech Junkie is for you. You can contact me or email techjunkie(a)standardmedia.co.ke Regards -- Twitter: @LarryMadowo Facebook.com/LarryMadowo
