I was just in San Francisco back in December for the African Studies conference too. (Also - did you once do the Podcasts for MacWorld??). I've been working on and off at UCAD in Dakar (also down the street at WARC) for several years now, working directly with their on campus technology and conducting internet workshops. I can put you in touch with the director of their computing facilities, as well as the past director who - last I knew - had gone on to become minister of technology for Senegal. Drop me a line at my email and lets talk! Your book sounds absolutely fascinating. (Found this: http://cyrusfarivar.com/docs/thesis_final.html and enjoyed reading it as well). I just hope I didn't find your site too late to be of any help. best, Scott Greetings,
