[kictanet] kictanet Digest, Vol 49, Issue 48

Tue Jun 14 11:24:43 EAT 2011

Re radical ideas and kids.

Mzalendo grew and went live when I was pregnant with my first child,
Ushahidi was born when I had a 10 month old and I quit my job to build the
organization behind it when I had another on the way, expecting number 3
after recently joining Google and I'm sure I will continue to have new ideas
there :-)
