Maybe the fastest internet in Bongoland

Day 3 has started, and we are in a new venue: Wina Communications in Sinza, Dar es Salaam, just beside the Meeda Bar that some people might know. The place is just a small internet café, but believe me, it has the fastest internet connection I have ever experiences in Tanzania or even elsewhere in Africa. We should have been here ever since early Monday.

So today we have been running fast and doing practical, though yet non-journalistic issues: checking timetables via the internet and learning how to buy train and flight tickets, visiting Tanzanian banks for internet banking (see CRDB Bank and NBC which already have this service here), editing the section of Tanzanian media in Wikipedia and watching some video clips on YouTube, on people making popcorn with mobile phones and a Frenchman kicking his football in the streets with amazing accuracy.

Next we will be opening the blogs to everyone.
