Dr. Ndemo, What is the demography of users in this forum? Most are CEOs, heads of advocacy groups, journalists, techies, e.t.c. These are people most inclined to gravitate towards politics. That's why political threads attract so many responses. I don't see the need to pacify political comments. Its part of our life. And ICT is at the center of politics On 07/12/2011, bitange@jambo.co.ke <bitange@jambo.co.ke> wrote:
Walubengo, Yesterday we spent a great deal of time discussing how technology will impact governance in the days a head. We heard arguments from leading social scientists, economists, politicians and journalists.
Then in my break I read your post on refocusing our discussions around IT issues. I have spent the night reflecting on this and now I am a bit confused. What do we mean when we say ICT is cross cutting? What is content in ICT terms? Can we use ICT as a tool for development? And what is development?
Ndemo.
