Kogelo.co.ke is a local address and an address without content is simply
nothing

The UNESCO def. of local content is here

I liked the Strathmore ICT conference. They were so organized and every
place the students handled well except the auditorium which didnt have
tables for bloggers and laptops and no live reportings.

The general organisation of the strathmore conference sincethe 1st in KICC
aphitheater have been good. The thing which Tandaa needs to improve I did
indicate and also stated what I think we should consider putting. But the
people who fear criticism saw it as fighting their event.
