I've stumbled upon a great (and yet another popular) blog by Afropolitan G. Kofi Annan called Annansi Chronicles. He's a writer, entrepreneur, and consultant on all things emerging in Afropolitan Africa.
I'm excited that and happy to announce that he is moderating a panel aptly called Africa 2.0 for the hip festival SXSW Its funny because I've been wanting to go the last couple of years, but now I have a perfect opportunity. If you haven't heard of South by Southwest, its a really cool Indie Festival that has gathered a huge indie fan base b/c of its showcase of bands and films as well as panels. This panel is titled "Africa 2.0: Affecting Change Using Technology"
Can't wait!
oooh yeah that sounds like fun! i'm looking forward to your full report! hehehe, no pressure though. px
