Dig-Africa
DigAfrica (for "Digital Africa") is a list for discussing "latest digital news in Africa." It was set up by Chifu wa Malindi in early 2001 and is quite active. I contributed from early 2004 through mid-2009. The full list archives
are online, but unfortunately they are not open. A list of my postings to this list follows, but they too are not accessible unless you subscribe and are logged-in (I suggested that this policy be changed, but apparently list members did not agree):
