A secret to making money online

This is a MUST-SEE for anybody that is running a start-up and/or is thinking about starting one. In this presentation, David H. Hansson (creator of Ruby on Rails), talks about the lifestyle business with the importance of spending "less" but quality time in developing a good product and generally "enjoying life" doing it!

He talks about the over-jealous intent of start-ups to flip the business... the companies are narrowly focused on pumping it up and selling-out in the hope of living a good life after that. Instead the focus has to be on creating a great product that address the pain point businesses have, and doing that better than others.

Picture with Kenyan ambassador to US

On Dec 20, 2006, I had the honor to meet the Kenyan ambassador to the US, Mr. Peter N.R.O. Ogego, who was visiting Dallas and was met by Pro Tem Don Hill, the mayor of Dallas. The two discussed opening bilateral trade and investment from Texas to Kenya.



His Excellency, Mr. Ogego, gave an impressive keynote address at a Luncheon organized by the African Chamber of Commerce, urging the business community in Dallas to invest in various sectors of the Kenya economy and take advantage of the opportunities presented by the expansion of the East Africa Community.

The event was attended by among others, Mr Ross Perot Jr. a multi billionaire investor in Dallas.

His Excellency, Mr. Ogego was presented with a special key for the city of Dallas by Mayor Don Hill.

I also had an opportunity to meet and trade business cards with Mr. Ross Perot Jr, Texas Secretary of State Mr. Roger Williams and President and CEO of African Chamber of Commerce, Sanmi Akinmulero. I must thank my good friend Steve Mathuku for the the invite.
