am @jwalu on tweeter.

i guess that means i will get more guys stalking me ;-) I truly feel like some old zack, being xtra careful on where am stepping...even FB, Linkden, and others remain for me purely academic and explorative exercises.

I am looking for real benefits, that type that puts bread on the table rather than waste productive working time. Something like what was posted yesterday @ www.irb.com/jwrt/indexxx.html - where the some young techies use the internet to stream the rugby action in Nairobi. That was cool - no need for expensive frequency payments to CCK and yet broadcasting and competing with the DSTVs of this world!

So anyway, where is the bread in all these social networks?

walu.

I have heard about blogs, but now there is this new

buzz about Twitter.

...

Anybody locally using twitter and finding it useful?

I just registered and am following some chap called arsenal_mania and frankly speaking it is informative while being entertaining (addictive?). Which brings me to the question - are there instances of local "handles" that are worth following and are having an impact within our local socio-economic context?

plse share.

walu. btw: some guys i dont know are already "stalking me" on twitter ;-)
