MAG: To be or not to be?

I am reading Ginger's "actions call" for MAG self/nominations.  And it is so spirited that I have decided to write down my "thoughts" here as a blog.  Will be my third blog of the day.. Looks like I'm in a bloggy mood.. if ever such a word exists.In reading the scoring, I see that I actually have a "BIG FAT" chance.  Here is the way I see it:1. I will get a 10% for being in Côte d'Ivoire, a country that has yet to be on the MAG2. I will get another 10% for being from a developing country3. And…See More

African languages on the cyber space

Hey people!

 

Have you heard of the Academy of African languages? The guys over there are seriously looking into the African languages and the cyerspace.  I have me a few questions:

  1. What African languages are on the net?
  2. Who is putting African languages on the net?
  3. What are the most important languages that need to be on the net?
  4. What are your personal thoughts?

Gimme a shout!

Hello Nnenna,

Many thanks for your comment on the Social Reporter Training workshop.

I'm sorry we didn't manage to link remote participants into the training directly (I didn't realise the WebCast was still on!) but I have prepared a 'Remote Training' presentation which you can find here: http://www.diplointernetgovernance.org/group/socialreporting/forum/topics/engage-remotely-connect

That has all the details of how to get involved (apart from the wrong e-mail address in. The correct one is igf2010@diplomacy.edu).

I hope you can be part of the remote social reporting!

Tim
