TENGEZA: Back Again
http://tengeza.blogspot.com/2011/08/back-again.html
Tuesday, August 16, 2011. A lot has happened in the last years since I went on hiatus. It is time to blog again. I have realised that there is a shortage of news and awareness on infrastructure projects. I will start sharing my insights into the what is happening in Kenya at the moment. In other words, I am back! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View blog top tags. TED: Ideas worth spreading. Simple template. Template images by DNY59.

TENGEZA: Rain, Roads and Traffic mis-direction
http://tengeza.blogspot.com/2008/07/rain-roads-and-traffic-mis-direction.html
Monday, July 7, 2008. Rain, Roads and Traffic mis-direction. It has not rained a lot this rainy season. In fact in my home I am currently experiencing water rationing. I was excited when it rained last Friday.for a short time. Getting home from work was terrible! T junctions out cross junctions in? Talk about sticking our heads in a sand pit! For all drivers on Kenyan roads, I wish you a "mis"-directed, traffic free, rainless filled, pothole less road! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

TENGEZA: Ethnicity, Land & Politics in Kenya
http://tengeza.blogspot.com/2008/06/ethnicity-land-politics-in-kenya.html
Saturday, June 14, 2008. Ethnicity, Land and Politics in Kenya. Time to break the hibernation. I spent a lot of time travelling and thus got to do quite some reading. Many things have happened in the short time that i was away but I will only write about something that affects me directly in all my interactions and that is land. To get back to the chart, it has a few spelling mistakes, some data is also missing and only shows the political arena till 1990. I will refer to this chart as r.c. v...The chart...

The Alpha Quadrant: July 2009
http://josiahmugambi.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2009. The scarcity of) Water. I did a bit of travelling this past weekend. Urban and rural Kenya offer rather stark contrasts, including forms of shelter, the concept of wealth, and life priorities among other things. A case could be made for the implementation of technology that would make it possible to monitor water flow, pressure and potentially narrow down faults in the whole distribution network, but one wonders if that wouldn't just become another white elephant. I blog about a...

The Alpha Quadrant: April 2009
http://josiahmugambi.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. Traffic and Roads and Rails. If GK vehicles break traffic rules with abandon, how would we expect mat guys to behave. Last time I checked only the president (and the PM now? Fire engines and ambulances could skive traffic legally. But nearly every day, I see GK (and parastatal, anything gova related) drivers driving on the wrong side of the road (I had a few plates crammed even) - like on Processional road(? At the end of the day, the road is not mine or yours, but ours. but w...

The Alpha Quadrant: Dr Ndemo @ Skunkworks
http://josiahmugambi.blogspot.com/2009/08/dr-ndemo-skunkworks.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2009. Dr Ndemo @ Skunkworks. The PS for Information and Communication did a talk at the 4th Aug meeting at Telposta towers 4th floor. There was also Joe Mucheru (Google Lead, EA) and Bret Bullington, a VC working in the Silicon Valley. Quite an interesting talk and discussion thereafter, with lots of challenging and thought provoking remarks from Dr Ndemo. Some highlights that stood out for me:. We are through with ( creating. Infrastructure, we now need content'. This was quite chall...

The Alpha Quadrant: October 2008
http://josiahmugambi.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 21, 2008. Horrible Driving, Rain. Last Monday evening I counted at least 5 minor accidents over a stretch of about 5 km. Today evening, there was a pileup on valley road, while I encountered a couple of accidents as well. Most of these accidents, if not all were preventable. A little patience, a little road courtesy, and at least trying to adhere to traffic regulations. The road carnage is avoidable:. Not overtaking at junctions - it is illegal and dangerous - the number of times I've se...

Wednesday, July 23, 2008. I use both Linux (Ubuntu at home) and Windows (Windows XP at work). I have found this Personal Wiki software pretty useful (once you get the hang of things). It functions like Notepad only that it allows you to create links between various 'Notes' aka WikiWords and thus maintains a hierarchy of documents that you can easily access. Its open source too. Links to this post. Friday, July 18, 2008. Links to this post. Saturday, July 12, 2008. This post has just been coming . Sometim...
