Use A Local East African Social Network

By Cornelia White


East African Social Network sites have become essential to many people in the area. From reuniting families to helping conservation efforts for the local wildlife, Africans who have access to the web are finding many different ways to utilize the idea of the social network. In a world that is growing constantly smaller due to the presence of internet information, what was once an isolated area of the globe is rapidly joining the online community.

With the advent of online classifieds and other such websites, folks who have access to the internet have the ability to find and offer work and jobs. In nations that are trying to catch up to the technological surge of the rest of the world, this kind of market should be used to bring together the people who have the knowledge and ambition to make positive changes in their own countries.

The internet swept the world over with information and new ways to communicate in the last decade of the 20th century but left those nations with little infrastructure and virtually non-existent tech communities behind. The safe assumption is that as these nations attain the ability to connect with it, their own communities with benefit from the web the same way that other countries and communities already have. This has opened many doors for all sorts of things.

In countries that formerly have been known as destitute and forlorn, the empowerment that a worldwide audience gives can be shocking. Individuals who may not have ever known their full potential, now have the ability to compete with people from thousands of miles away and with great gusto. A student from Djibouti who has an excellent grasp of English and grammar can now write for British, Australian and American markets from the ease of home, schools and libraries.

One must also consider the actions of foreign governing bodies. The country of Somalia, for instance, has had a quite rocky governmental history for the last several decades. A country that recently had used Shari'a law may not be open to the ability for its citizens to be influenced by what might be deemed illegal and unconscionable information by whichever faction of government succeeds in maintaining power.

Conservation agencies have also benefited greatly from the advance of such networking in recent years. Large groups have the ability to reach out to many millions of people and have taken advantage of that for many years. What about the smaller ones? Now they have the same access to the same audience, which brings added benefits to users.

Many local parks and conservation agencies have joined the growing number of social networking sites in order to promote their agendas of saving the different species and ecological habitats that are unique to Africa. From global organizations to the single individual, everyone now has the power to act in a much larger capacity.

Understanding how East African Social Network use can provide the kick start to local, national and even global economies is the key to understanding how you can lift an entire continent to new heights. Leveling the playing field for the smaller businesses and contractors seems to be a realistic and easily attainable goal. Giving fiscal boosts to areas that have long been neglected can be a way to affect positive change in an area of the world that has been struggling to achieve independent success for many years.
