Local hosting - Universities
Hi, For some strange reason yesterday I decided to check where the web site for University of Nairobi was was being hosted and shock off all shocks I traced its home to somewhere in the State of Columbia in the US of A. (http://whatismyipaddress.com/ip/207.58.152.134) Our institutions of higher learning such as the universities especially when they are offering advanced degrees in ICTs should at the least be able to host their websites. This is a very concerning issue as it now becomes clear why we are producing graduates who are out of touch with the real world. My beer my Country, my website not in my country.
