What were your results of kenyan usage of twitter by content? When I looked at #kenyadecides yesterday, it seemed a few streams of poll and self marketing. Others who sat in front of tv and were tweeting the same information that most of were getting on national tv. Then ofcourse the confusion last night which got clarified. Me thots. -- Rgds, "Skunkworks-KE is a social platform for technologists. It's where we hang out, talk, discuss, help out some poor soul with technology issues and share a drink once in a while. Then we part....and go do our thing "

Is anyone else experiencing problems with Google Apps or GMail chat? Mine is constantly disconnecting and re-connecting with the following error "We're experiencing technical difficulties that may prevent your chats from being sent." Its not a speed issue as I am on fibre and the link is stable (I tested it). Any ideas on how resolve this? Its getting really annoying. -- Regards Brian Ngure

Set top box?

Good people, A friend of mine told me he bought a "DVB-T Set top thingy which i connect to a kawaida aerial, then to a kawaida tv using the red/green/white video cables" apparently, this device costs abt 6k in the supermarkets and converts the analogue signal to digital, plus it enables him to "receive" about 8 additional free to air channels, including HBO! Not wanting to sound like an idiot, i didnt confirm or deny his achievements. Someone please tell me, what is this thingy my friend is talking about and does it do everything he says it does?

OT: House of Saddam
by Philip Musyoki 05 Aug '10

Hi, Not sure if anyone has seen a 4 part series called 'House of Saddam' depicting the rise and fall of Saddam Hussein to his very final lows as he faces the hangman's noose. Now I watching this last night as the referendum results were trickling in and I could not help to think of former President Daniel Moi. There was so much similarities, from his brutal regime, his sons, to his 'fall', the only part missing was the final justice part.
