There must be a number of people here using cloud backup actively. I've been a casual Dropbox user but with Google Drive significantly reducing prices <http://androidkenya.com/?p=540>, I think I'll it more actively and consistently. What are the general experiences listers have on cloud storage use? How about drawbacks? Other than the usual Internet speeds and data caps? Is Google Drive a with the new pricing a good option? I'm especially thinking of the 1TB for $9.99 a month option (KES 863.64*12 = 10,363.68 per year) Best, James W. -- gtalk : jwaciira | skype : jwaciira

Walter, there are quite a number of factors to consider all the way from reliability performance etc. My design approach is usually to provide as much cable as possible and use wireless as overly.

There are few positions that will be filled competitively by the best candidates following an interview and examination process. This will then lead them to an internship with Nokia Solutions an Networks for 12 months upon which there will be further chances for career development both inside an outside Kenya. We would appreciate if the applicants would send their CV and a cover letter detailing why they are interested in the programme, to grad-trainee(a)wertsoft.com. Candidates who do not meet the initial requirements set above will not be considered due to the limited number of opportunities. Regards, ====================== Andrew Wafula Wapakala If you have made mistakes...there is always another chance for you... you may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down. - Mary Pickford "Great Minds Discuss Ideas; Average Minds Discuss Events; Small Minds Discuss People"

Tips to Boost your Android Phone Battery Life
by Tech List Kenya 11 Mar '14

11 Mar '14

Actually 1 trick worked miracles for me: Disable/Uninstall Chrome browser. That thing is a battery hog. The phone used to get so hot and sometimes it would actually overheat, after a few minutes of use. I defaulted back to Opera Mini. Save for a few sites that it doesn't render very well, this worked for me. For the sites that don't display well, there are apps. Think FB, LinkedIn, etc. If you have a rooted phone, I saw guys recommending the AOSP browser. Or even Firefox. Thing with Chrome is that it drains the battery even when it's not in use. Tip no. 2: I use AVG which I think takes this work a little bit too seriously. At 30% it kills all my connections, reduces brightness (and a few other battery optimizations) Sources: My experience - My phone is now at 26%, 16hrs after I disconnected the charger at 73% http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-galaxy-s-ii-epic-4g-touch/195986-un… http://www.yaabot.com/5015/5-apps-drain-battery-androidios/ http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-galaxy-s-ii-epic-4g-touch/192616-ch…

by david aliata 08 Mar '14

08 Mar '14

Dear All, The Jornada Experimental Range (USDA-ARS) at New Mexico State University is currently developing a global knowledge engine using mobile phone and cloud computing technologies to evaluate land potential and predict restoration success at fine spatial and temporal scales. Currently, we have a pre-beta version of the mobile tool (Android application) to be tested in the field in Kenya (late March). Current plans are to grow the tool to allow for real-time, user communication and sharing of best practices. It is our intention to also develop this application to meet agency/organization objectives for mapping of incidences of human conflict, their relationship to land degradation variables, and allow for appropriate response from the relevant agency/organizations. We are currently looking for application developers based in East Africa, with experience working in the Android platform. We are willing to meet with competent organizations and individuals in Nairobi, Kenya during the weeks of 18 March - 1 April, 2014. Please contact Dr. Adam Beh at abeh(a)nmsu.edu for details. -- Regards! Aliata D.

Hey Adam, Somebody ought to explain this, really, because it makes the really good administrators and our profession in general, look bad. It is not once I have been confronted and asked to explain this. When I do explain what the possible causes are, I am asked, "why don't you tell them what to do?" If it is a budgetary problem, they as a department can take it up with top level management. But if they are to succeed, they need to build a case in conjunction with all the other departments, diplomatic style. If they don't know what to do, they need to consult from more experienced guys. -- Kevin Njoroge about.me/nknkevin On Thu, 6 Mar 2014 11:55 AM, Adam Nelson <adam(a)varud.com> wrote: That site is riddled with problems and it definitely makes the department look like it's made up of rookies ... but what can you do? -- Kili - Cloud for Africa: kili.io Musings: twitter.com/varud <https://twitter.com/varud> More Musings: varud.com About Adam: www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Thu, Mar 6, 2014 at 11:46 AM, Kevin Njoroge <nknkevin(a)gmail.com> wrote: > For a while I have noticed accessing kra.co.ke and iTax systems has been > having issues.

Accessing KRA site and functions
by Kevin Njoroge 06 Mar '14

06 Mar '14

For a while I have noticed accessing kra.co.ke and iTax systems has been having issues. Although it's not as bad as it was months ago, it still happens. I figure they changed a lot of things which is commendable, but I still have to ask: - Is it that they have low bandwidth on their servers such that it is difficult to access it when everybody is on it? Or is it that someone hasn't noticed that they need to increase the number of requests that the server can handle at any one time? It's funny that error 503s still happen since they (the KRA server admins) should be expecting a lot traffic to their sites. Somebody break it down for me because this baffles me. Is it a budget issue (they are not being given the resources they need), a competency issue (they don't know what to do) or a security issue (they are limiting requests to prevent hacking) or what? Also, I think the KNEC and KPLC website and server admins should learn something from this because when a major update comes from those companies, error 503 from their sites becomes the order of the day , which I think, makes them look like rookies (no offence). -- Kevin Njoroge about.me/nknkevin
