Hi Guys, Interesting. In 2004, I was running a social network that was crowded for the first 3 months and people have no loyalty to their own. If you ask me to put up anything in swahili to make it look local, you are actually telling me to loose the little traffic i have. I have ran http://dearkenya.com for a about 3 years, decided to brand it to something different because i gave up on the kenyan audience. We are yet to train our audience. We are innovative, swahili doesnt make us any more... FYI...no one ever wrote an email on this forum in swahili. David. On Tue, May 19, 2009 at 3:41 AM, Rad! <conradakunga@gmail.com> wrote:

Gladiatus actually aroused interest in their website by introducing a product in swahili language. Note that it arouses interest since it is a product that many Kenyans have not used / is new to them. As for social sites, facebook is already there, and most of our friends are in facebook. Tht is the challenge of trying to come up with a new social site. A person weighing in their options acatually finds it is more favourable for them to stay and keep using facebook!

I disagree with you, and what David said. There were plenty of social networking sites before Facebook e.g. MySpace. Facebook found a way to innovate features that would keep 1. People coming back 2. Spreading That is the ticket. Innovation. You can't just re-package facebook and expect similar success. If users don't come back to your site the problem is not the users! It's the site.

Hi Guys,
Interesting. In 2004, I was running a social network that was crowded for the first 3 months and people have no loyalty to their own. If you ask me to put up anything in swahili to make it look local, you are actually telling me to loose the little traffic i have. I have ran http://dearkenya.com for a about 3 years, decided to brand it to something different because i gave up on the kenyan audience. We are yet to train our audience. We are innovative, swahili doesnt make us any more...
FYI...no one ever wrote an email on this forum in swahili.

David, why did it take you one year to tell Shiro that Kenyanblogger was attacked{I hope not by Osama or Somali pirates or the Arturs}? May be you should put up an apology somewhere to read: One year ago, we were attacked and lost all the data. blah! blah. APOLOGIES FOR NOT INFORMING YOU! Then offer free gifts to your customers whose data got lost, Shero being one of them!
