From what my brain's archive says, sasanet went defunct because they started operating a kind-of micro-finance organization thus moving away from thecore business. During the day, shifting from the main business meant closing or losing your business.
I think that's what happened! (Corrections are welcome, though) 2010/1/10 Mark Mwangi <mwangy@gmail.com>
hey people,
I remember some time back just when the mobile phone craze was hitting home and sms's used to cost a fortune to send (especially for young guys when the cheapest card was like 100/-), There were several sites that let you send sms's to any Kenyan no. and they were very popular in cyber café's . the most popular was sasanet.co.ke which I now understand to be defunct. . . anyway they all shutdown at the same time just when they were really getting a strong following and i thot their business case was good because of the advert bit at the end. . . . .my thots are that there was a change in regulations that simply put them out of business. . or does anyone know what happened? -- Regards,
Mark Mwangi
