What would you do with 100Mbps bandwidth?
by Watson Kambo 08 Sep '10

08 Sep '10

A friend of mine from Germany, a remote small town 30K residents has this 100Mbps link on coax cable, its a triple play, it this what we should expect from Zuku? and now I hear Safcom is testing LTE which promises almost the same ... would we be right to say that in the near future we will have these crazy speeds? question is are we ready as a Kenyan market for such speeds? My parents back in the village do not have even a dial up, why varied reasons ... this friend of mine is almost the same age with my dad yet he is over excited by the speeds .. what will have to change in our setting to 'entice' the masses with data ... I know for the Young urban its the thing to be on FB shall we say Thats it for Data ... I still think we are still a 'Voice' only country ... -- Watson Kambo

Re: [Skunkworks] Stock Photos and other web design issues
by Joram Mwinamo 08 Sep '10

I have raised this before about kenyan websites 1. Why dont people want to disclose who runs the company in the about us section? It this a kenyan culture? We are proud to put "our clients" but not "our management team or team profiles". 2. The use of stock photos. Some designers use free photos which maintain the security features and its very unsightly. Cant we create jobs for local photographers and pay for the photos?Better yet cant designers work with photographers to take actual photos of employees or the company at work? Just asking so I can understand the behaviour. -- Sent from my Voice Recognition Watch© -------------------------------------------------------------------- Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
