afri-silicon··on The YC Passed Phase 1 thread

Notifications are already out. Me, rejected!!!

afri-silicon··on YC Rejected: Please read.

Me, I have already recieved my rejection (i prefer "unsuccessful") notification, but I can assure you, i will push on. Though honestly, the opportunity for YC would have been welcome.

afri-silicon··on Ask HN: Just cashed out for 2M. What now?

This is a little un-related, but the more I read HN and actively listen the more I think of a y-combinator like org in Nairobi Kenya. Ideas are many but angels scarce.

Suggestions kindly

afri-silicon··on Ask HN: Just cashed out for 2M. What now?

the question for Canadian companies was if they would go South instead of when...

And talking of South, real South, I and a few friends have been thinking of a y-combinator like in Nairobi Kenya. Good ideas are many but investors quite scarce

afri-silicon··on Congratulations PG on the coming child

Done

afri-silicon··on Congratulations PG on the coming child

All of them, even Kamba, Miji-Kenda, Luhya and many others.By the way, we are 42 tribes in Kenya.

afri-silicon··on Congratulations PG on the coming child

Congrats

Here in Kenya, the kids born around now are either Obama (boy or Michelle (girl)

afri-silicon··on Can Africa produce a Google, Facebook or Microsoft?

Yea, google-type/like giants can come out of africa. Just try a Y-combinator/africa (centred in Nairobi) and you'll see. HONESTLY.
