The most interesting part of this blog is the sidebar that listed all the other blogs from all over Africa. This means that the Internet has created an unseen link between African nations and maintains communication of issues around Africa. Africa has become a forgotten continent where people living under impossible condition. And this is where the technology of blog and Internet takes a big part of changing the condition.
Â
Just say, someone would access the This is Zimbabwe blog, and manage through the sidebar into other African nations’ blogs. It makes them aware of what happens in Africa and not from the eyes of western world. This is an alternative medium. For some people, blog would be another place to write their diary, but to Sokwanele and other African bloggers, it is a place to shout to the world and let them know the real African story. Blog has become another bar for African people to meet and chat about their side of the story.
