Living Digitally!

Who would have thought our lives will be run and managed digitally! I'll say I had a fair inkling, but that's thanks to my friends in the ITC sector. Everything and anything is online, can be found online or will be done online. As the quote goes..."there's an App for that." Some daily uses include;

- Online banking i.e. checking balances, transferring money and so on
- Social networking
- Writing your blog post
- Finding anything i.e. Mocality
- General daily living - facebooking (yes, it's part of your life), photosharing, getting up-to-the-minute news around the world, twitter, LinkedIn and so on

With the current drop in call rate by mobile phone providers in Kenya, competitive advantage will be gained from services provided and roll out of 3G. Data IS the way this decade. The introduction of smartphones (high and low end) will be advantageous to all in accessing certain services we have now and those yet to come.

So the abundant supply of phones (hopefully the era of having 2-4 phones will cease), will become part of our lives...just like taking a shower!!! And the emerging and developing economies will lead the pace.
