What a cold colourless morning this one has been with all the drizzle and the cold weather. Then the Nairobi commute to town which has been acknowledged as one of the worst in the world was made even woret. No fun. So much has happened since I last blogged so much has been happening. Lets get on with it shall we?

KDN opened a new Data centre to some aplomb last week which will probably come in handy if we continue doing surgeries online like the first Ever Video Conferencing Surgery that happened at the Aga Khan Hospital last week. Then there was the launch of the Samsung's latest smartphone in Kenya saw a huge number of the bloggers talking about it including Kachwanya and Techweez. Techmtaa went ahead and did a review of the phone before the launch date as did Savvy Kenya who gave her opinion on the hot phone. I have already stated how much in spite of my hatred for Didier Drogba (who is the front man for the phone) those Koreans have some serious toys.

The hottest topic has to be the election no? Everyone is putting their hat forward with Raphael Tuju Presidential giving his pitch in Sheng being the most memorable. A very interesting candidature was unleashed yesterday when author and current postgraduate student at Oxford University Kingwa Kimencu announced that she too will be running for president. My initial reaction on Kenya's rising literary star that is Kingwa was … Wait a minute, Kingwa is 35 already? I thought she was still in her 20s last time I checked. When my colleagues at the political desk informed me with the new (I know its been a year already but I still want to enjoy the pleasure of calling it this) constitutional dispensation then you don't have to be 35 to be president. You just have to be a voter. Sweet. Anyway is actually 27 and she was heard on the Capital FM (who recently turned 15, congrats y'all!) and talking about how she wants to impact Kenyan society for the best. I wish her all the best in her bid. It looks a mite like the Yvonne Khamati bid for Makadara from 2002 and I really don't fancy her chances. I won't be too surprised if she unleashes a new book and makes it a bestseller from the furore that come this bid very soon.
