I like Oscar’s idea of having WikiSaturdays
on different campuses. And while you’re negotiating that, may I suggest
that the different campus groups meet on *different*
Saturdays? Like Strathmore on the first Saturday of the month, JKUAT on the
second etc. – that way those of us who are not affiliated with a campus
(but also have less flexibility due to job and family obligations) would have
more Saturdays to choose from and be enabled to attend at least one Saturday
per month. For my part I know that if WikiSaturday was always the last
Saturday, and *only* the last, I won’t
be able to attend too many of them L
Fwiw, and cheers,
Oliver

Steve,
U explore on the details and workability of thye software with regards to the
modems.Now what remains is the venue??
Guys,
Another wild suggestion guys is since some of us JKUAT) are resuming session
from this week onwards,and we have access to WiFi,what if we start thinking of
having Local Campus WikiSaturdays?Like why should we have JKUAT guys having
there own WikiSaturday and hoipefully recruit newbies in the Campus,Strath the
same and staff...Plus anyone could attend any of the WikiDays he/she wishes and
can make to.It would be quite cheap for both of us...Then we could have live
discussions via IRC,chats,etherpads and staff....just an idea to make voluntary
manageble to all of us...:P
Regards,

Abbas,
The speed was not slow because of the phone or anything, it was the coverage. I
have managed to use the connection with 6 people and it was good if you have a
good coverage. The Safaricom 2bob per minute is actually quite fast. What you
could do is get a GSM router so that u can use that.
I have one GSM router that am willing lend if need be. I will be in
David.

Hi Abbas, the connectify
thing that Steve is suggesting is superb. We have used it for a while and it
works just fine. We even got to use it when we were in Nyeri to connect all our
laptops to the net. Talk to him and he'll best explain how it works. I am just
another user and not in a position to give you the details of how the hot spot
is created. Thanks.
