We love what you are doing for accents telecom. You have been able to expose our brand in our TM early in the game and for that we are thankful and looking forward to a successful and long -term partnership.
Hash – This was good stuff.

Thanks, we will look forward to the conversation.

Very kind words my fellow blogger. I appreciate that. Though it is a daily challenge balancing so many roles, I would not trade the experiences of participating in Africa’s renaissance for anything.
@Dr Ian
Very thoughtful suggestion. Thanks!

Interesting point, though I would make the comment that we occupy different ends of the spectrum than google ads. They are going after a market that does not mind whether their ads appear on a computer site or an adult dating site-so long as the keywords are relevant…
@Fimbo
Thanks for the kudos. Nice point too, it sort of reminds me of the analogy of that one guy who looked at a heap of refuse and tought, “thats trash” while another person came along and said looked at it and said to himself, “if I can get it up that is opportunity”. I say that because as you have indicated the African publisher space is certainly small compared to the others, but we believe that over time it will surely grow.
