Mobile Campaign to Vote for Kenyan Innovator
by Edith Adera 16 Nov '10

16 Nov '10

Listers and CEOs of all Mobile Companies in Kenya, We need to take pride in our "own" and promote INNOVATION by young Kenyans. I would like to appeal to ALL mobile operators in Kenya to launch a campaign via mobile to get millions of Kenyans to vote for Evans. If we can have a mobile to web-link (i.e. get people to vote via sms..which is then automatically channelled to the voting site heroes.cnn.com/vote.aspx<http://heroes.cnn.com/vote.aspx> that will be great). I think we have enought techy innovators within the mobile companies to make this happen! Lets see which moble operator will take up the challenge and lead from the front! How is this related to ICTs? He intends to use the money he wins to put up "an ICT centre, a solar-powered fish processing plant and build more lanterns for distribution to needy homesteads in the country". In the near future..you never know, this ICT centre could be turned into an "innovation hub" for ICT solutions! We need to inspire our youth to innovate! Over to you to make this happen! Edith ===================================================================== Kenyan shines his way to CNN awards with solar lantern [http://www.nation.co.ke/image/view/-/1051860/medRes/212774/-/maxw/600/-/fel…] Evans Wadongo, Kenya’s finalist in the 2010 CNN Heroes Award. You vote for him at heroes.cnn.com/vote.aspx. Photo/SULEIMAN MBATIAH By ABY AGINA aagina(a)ke.nationmedia.com Posted Thursday, November 11 2010 at 20:34 It all started in a room at his hostel when he invented the first ever solar-powered lantern back in 2004. His desire to provide sustainable energy to communities was hatched while studying Electrical Engineering at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology. As he fiddled with an experiment involving the timing of Christmas lights the idea to provide an environmentally friendly light source for rural homes struck him. Today, Evans Wadongo’s initiative, which involves supplying solar-powered lanterns at no cost, has transformed the lives of thousands of rural families who have no access to electricity and live below the poverty line. He has received 200 supply requests from countries interested in his lanterns. “We plan on opening an office in Lagos Nigeria, Sudan, Uganda and the US to meet the growing demands.” Coming from a poor family of four children, he relied on a kerosene lamp to study at night. At some point he develop poor eyesight because of smoke from the kerosene lamp. Wadongo, the only African in the finals for the 2010 Cable News Network (CNN) Hero Awards, will be travelling to the United States on November 15 to represent Kenya at the awards ceremony in Hollywood. The award, which attracted over 10,000 contestants form all over the world, is given to young persons with innovative projects geared towards eliminating poverty and creating sustained social development in local communities. The 24-year-old will be relying on votes from Kenyans to clinch the coveted award come the finals to be aired on CNN live on November 25. Voting is still under way on heroes.cnn.com/vote.aspx<http://heroes.cnn.com/vote.aspx> and is expected to close on November 18. If he gets voted as the finalist he stands to bring home $100,000 (about Sh8 million) which he says would be channelled towards financing production of more lanterns and other economic ventures his organisation supports. He says part of the cash will finance a project in Migori, Nyanza, that targets to transform the area into a virtual tower. “I plan to invest the money in setting up an ICT centre, a solar-powered fish processing plant and build more lanterns for distribution to needy homesteads in the country,” he said. In a media briefing held on Thursday organised by Brand Kenya Limited at NHIF building an upbeat Mr Wadongo urged Kenyans to vote for him at the same time exuded confidence of victory in the competition. During his visit, Wadongo is expected to hold meetings with top business leaders and tour several States and institutions of learning. “I intend to spend a month in the US and meet with business executives from Microsoft and Apple, hold media interviews and address students at Stanford University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology,” he said. His innovative programme dubbed ‘Use solar, save Lives’ produces lanterns at a cost Sh1,600. The production is funded by donors. The solar-powered lamp can light up a home for six hours if it is fully charged by being left in the sun during the day. The inventor says the life span for the lamp is between six and 10 years. Wadongo says he has designed a new lantern that has a radio and a slot for charging a mobile phone. This one is still in the test stage. Operating from his office in Nairobi’s South B area, which also hosts a workshop and employs eight permanent staff and over 10 volunteers each month, Wadongo estimates he has distributed 14,000 lanterns to rural communities across the country and hopes to hit 150,000 by 2015. His group buys excess pieces of solar panelling cut from commercially sold panels and collects scrap metal to make the lamps. Wadongo plans to train more youths to handle the large orders. He says his dream of providing sustainable development to the poor has become a reality. “Children can now study, households can buy food with the money they save on kerosene, and carbon emissions have been reduced,” he says with a smile. ________________ Edith Ofwona Adera Senior Program Specialist ICT4D Program and Climate Change & Water Program International Development Research Centre | Centre de recherches pour le développement international Regional Office for Eastern and Southern Africa Tel: +254202713160 | Fax/Téléc: +254202711063 | Skype: edithadera eadera(a)idrc.or.ke<mailto:[email protected]> | www.idrc.ca<http://www.idrc.ca/> | www.crdi.ca<http://www.crdi.ca/> [https://email.idrc.or.ke/owa/attachment.ashx?id=RgAAAAANayfd3%2b2VQYZo%2flc…]

Fwd: [ NNSquad ] Facebook's new chat/email feature apparently records everything you say
by McTim 15 Nov '10

15 Nov '10

Listers, You have been warned! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lauren Weinstein <lauren(a)vortex.com> Date: Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 9:47 PM Subject: [ NNSquad ] Facebook's new chat/email feature apparently records everything you say To: nnsquad(a)nnsquad.org Facebook's new chat/email feature apparently records everything you say Based on *preliminary information* I heard from the Facebook launch announcement today for their new "chat/email" system (Facebook keeps insisting that it isn't really email), users will *not* have the ability to declare chats or related conversations to be "off the record" -- everything will apparently be recorded. Individual users will have the ability to archive or delete their *own* copies of transcripts, but it appears that there is explicitly *not* a functionality similar to Google's "off the record" chat feature, which permits users to declare that their conversations with given individuals should not be routinely preserved. "It just didn't make sense for us," were pretty much the words that Zuckerberg used in response to a question on this topic. We'll have to wait for more info, but this could be a major privacy problem in the making. -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek. An address indicates where it is.

A lending hand for KPLC and other agencies from the private sector?
by Edwin Onchari 12 Nov '10

12 Nov '10

Listers, Anyone out there aware of any initiative where the private sector can give a lending hand to government to deliver quality services to its citizens? If not, is this something that can be explored? A suggestion/example I have in mind is for instance have some developers collaborate with say KPLC is putting a solution in place (integrate with whatever ERP they have in place) where electricity consumers can key in meter readings daily, weekly, or whenever they so choose. This could save the consumers quite a penny in that they are able to accurately monitor their consumption; access their itemized bills online and hopefully KPLC can lower the fuel levy that they so exorbitantly charge the consumer! It makes very little sense to go queue for 3-4hrs at their offices to sort out erroneous billing month in month out, because their meter reader decided not to do his/her work and instead submit estimates. These collaborative solutions can be extended to other government agencies so that they catch up with the rest of us in the 21st Century! Kind regards, Edwin

However from his list of personalities who have excelled in propelling their organizations to great heights despite their not so high academic qualifications, the one thing they all have in common is that they each had a vision to make their respective organizations what they are today.
