I only found out this past week that a friend, Athman Mohamed, was short-listed for as one of the possible winners for the World Bank’s Apps for Development competition.

His entry, FACTCHA, was the only one from Kenya that made it to the final cut and although he did not win the ultimate prize he beat out many others to receive an honorable mention. More details on FACTCHA can be found here>
