Mobile phones in Africa

If you have no idea how mobile phones are changing the rules in Africa, it is time to check Nathan Eagle’s presentation at LIFT07, where he explains how he pays his milk with his phone, and how sms has changed dating.

Fascinating stuff. As I prepare to go for a few weeks in Asia (Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, and South Korea) this talk comes as a reminder that developing countries have a lot to teach us.
