Africans really need to support each other to succeed. The only difference between Veepiz and other social Networking sites is that we do not have as many members as them. It does not make sense for an African to be on an American social networking site before visiting various social networks in Africa. Charity begins at home. Asia has its social networking sites, Canada, Russia, England, Netherlands, Japan, to mention a few. Their nationalities religiously follow them. I.T. is a universal language, your ability to speak it well has no co-relation with your location but simply your IT background i.e the first time you saw a computer. An IT literate person in a one room shack in Bombay will make better software than someone in Silicon Valley, California(famous home of software). Is it that Africans think so low of themselves that they think nothing good can come out of the "dark continent"? Writing came from the dark continent, didn't it? Also well written software can, can't it? What makes me feel bad about being African is Africans feeling bad about being African or South Africans' xenophobia towards other Africans.
