too much news – example, grameen and obopay

As much I enjoy posting to this blog, it is clearly not the place to go for a comprehensive run-down of all-things-mobile.  There’s just too much news and I don’t have a chance to comment on everything. If I crack 2 posts a week I feel prolific. The daily dish, this is not.

Today’s example: the announcement that Grameen solutions and Obopay are launching a “bank a billion” initiative in India and Bangladesh, with m-banking at its core. It is a great story but one I don’t know much about beyond what I’ve seen in the press coverage, to which others have already linked.     

So, please note the new feed on the lower-left hand column of the blog.  This contains links to interesting posts I’ve recently read on other blogs about mobiles, ICTD, m-banking, etc.   Going forward, I’ll try to keep this feed stocked almost daily with good stuff, even if I don’t comment on the content in a standalone post.
