And as Ory aptly puts it... "What we've seen recently - in Liberia and then
with the election in Sierra Leone - are projects where people are finding
ways to use SMS and plug into tools like Google Maps and Fusion Tables to
help visualise data," she continued. "It's an interesting example of
combining high tech and low tech."
