@ Claire......next time some one will say I heard David Kiania was part of Ushahidi...because you confused David Kiania with David Kobia On Fri, Dec 3, 2010 at 8:26 PM, Claire Njoki <clairenjoki@gmail.com> wrote:
Congratulations David,
However, I have always wondered, who exactly is the main creator or Ushahidi. Every time I see Ushahidi being mentioned I see different people saying that they created it. There is a lady from Harvard, another jungu guy, and another lady...and now David Kiania is indicated as "part of ushahidi.com"...
...therefore to put this matter to rest, can someone please tell me who really is the person who conceptualized the main idea that germinated into ushahidi...
I know some of you will say, well, it is open source and so there are many people involved, but, we all know for example when we think of linux OS, the history books will indicate it all started with Linus Torvalds...
Therefore I beg you to tell me...who initiated Ushahidi...since that is the person who I believe should be written in the history books.
Claire.

Well done yet again, Ushahidi seems to be the gift that keeps on giving.
3 Cheers
