THE BEST KENYAN NETWORK AND SEASONS GREETINGS

It’s that time of the year when you review what has been, how it was done and if you are going to do it again you would probably say what Bart Simpson would say ‘I don’t know! I don’t know why I did it, I don’t know why I enjoyed it, and I don’t [...]

OFFERS OUT THERE

I was to wait and see what our good mobile phone companies would do to make our lives all jolly during this time of give give give and spend.
Well nothing really surprising from any. I like quiet and not the yad yad yad that is synonymous with us Kenyans. We like talking and getting money [...]

LOOKING FOR NOKIA 2730 AND OVI

Recently Nick my friend called me with a distress call. He had seen a nice phone on the Nokia website. The Nokia 2730. Nick was after the device that he claims is the first entry level 3G phone from Nokia for this market. I am yet to look up at this claim. So I joined [...]

DATA AND PROBABILITY

For a while now most mobile phone networks in the region had one kind of promotion. A promotion that was geared at making its customers use more of its products.
Known to its marketing departments as a rewards scheme, the promotions have been quite interesting to watch, participate and if you win, rekindle that friendship that [...]

PEACE AND QUIET

Friday the 8th was a very interesting day for me. After it seemed to be one of those days it meandered into a boring day where friends meet to exchange stories on how the week was or how the economy sucks, I decided to have an early dinner and decided to walk down to River [...]

THE HOLIDAY CALLS

This was a good weekend I must say. First it had four days away from the office (you can sense my displeasure of the place).
 I have to be there to earn my two dollar a day pay. (That is what we say when your pay is bad). Anyway on Good Friday I decided to spend [...]

LADIES,GADGETS AND SOCIAL SITES

The cliché has been that women hate gadgets and the fear for many ICT companies was how they would excite our lady folk. Well as it is now, it’s the lady folk that is exciting the tech firms.
 
Am from Mars and am yet to understand and know my mother. She is a sweet lady but [...]

WILL SEACOM CONTAIN OUR PECULIAR HABITS

It’s Friday and the clock has just hit 3pm East Africa standard time. The behaviour of East Africans is the same all over the region. After a lethargic slow afternoon, a flurry of activities seem to take place at this time. Guys get to chat rooms, texting goes to overdrive and making a mobile call [...]

NAIROBI MORNING BUS

I love my beer especially when it’s cold. My love for this frothy drink has even made me come up with new ways of cooking using beer. Experimenting on other foods and fruits also has made for interesting sessions. But recently I did find out to the annoyance of the people sitting next to me [...]

READ AND CHARGE YOUR BATTERY

I recently drove past the Pumwani Maternity Hospital in the eastern part of Nairobi. I smiled and my colleague in the car asked what was funny. I retorted by saying that this was where I came to this world. So where is the joke he must have asked? Well I just came to find out [...]
