Ken Banks on CBC Radio One
June 18th, 2008
Africa, beeping/miss calls, m-banking, microenterprise, sharing behavior
I’ve written about Ken Banks’ work with kiwanja.net from time to time. Ken just completed a lengthy interview with the technology program Spark on CBC Radio One. It’s a very good overview of some of the most interesting implications of the spread of mobiles in Africa. The short form touches on m-banking, microenterprises and livelihoods. The longer form adds Ken’s comments on shared phones, low-cost handsets, and beeping/flashing/missed calls/’please call me’.
