One of my interest is “How can information technology improve lives in the developing world?” (sentence from this post). If you are interested in this topic, you will enjoy Ethan Zuckerman’s ramblings on Africa, technology and media and particularly the post titled Mike Best with evidence that ICT4D works….
[I don’t like the term “developing world. In Italian I tend to use “paesi del Sud del Mondo”, that it is not 100% satisfactory as well since you could argue that Sud (south) can be intended as less valuable than North but I don’t agree: on many topics, the word South can carry more positive values than the word North]

UMM, this is not on the subject matter whatsoever, but I was just wondering if you could help me out. I’m trying to find information on my name (it’s actually my nickname) which happens to be the same as your last name. Would you, by any chance, happen to know the meaning of your last (I assume) name? I would really appreciate it.
Also, your March 30th post is interesting. Isn’t it contemplative how perspective is relative and relavent?
Have a great day :)
