This one dedicated to the Kenyan Software Developers and Programmers...

Some on this list know one of my passion for history. I've spend a lot of time in trying to understand Libya and its history, related to the current sad events there. Anyway, for the kenyan software developers and programmers, one day we will be able to create our own systems and and be free of the "fake awards, dealerships, resellers, affiliates and middleware humans awareness" and "corporate" culture of the code world--whether closed or open source. Something motivational I found some months ago, it's in a different language--a unique sound--but the lyrics have been translated into English. For the real code and systems developers in KE, this one dedicated to you. Creativity has no limits. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4AKpSTQ6XY Over and out. :-)
