Barcamp day 2 was kicking with Whive.com, Google and Kenya ICT Board making presentations in the early morning session.

Since i was participating i didn’t have a chance to  take any notes on the other presentations but here is a brief summary of what i talked about.

You can read more on the other presentations at WhiteAfrican.com and iHub.co.ke

I showcased Whive.com as an African social networking platform that is offering social networking tools to Kenyans in their colloquial languages.

I also  showed for the first time our social networking Mobile App for Nokia.

This application will be available on iKatiba.com Kenya’s first Mobile App Store from this week. You can view the release dates here http://www.ikatiba.com. Also See our  iKatiba facebook photo album by our fans here

I got a number of interesting questions from the community on use and business case for this applications and demonstrated that we need to innovate at the local level with global thinking.

Here are some of the tweets regarding this
