  Writer.
  Born Ogidi, Nigeria, November 16, 1930.
  Died Boston, US, March 21, aged 82.

NIGERIAN novelist and poet Chinua Achebe was, for Nelson Mandela, "the writer in whose company the prison walls fell down".

This was Mandela's tribute to Achebe on the occasion of the latter's 70th birthday in 2000. Mandela was acknowledging not only the comfort Achebe's writings had brought him during his own 27 years in prison but also what he considered to be the novelist's equal contribution as an African "freedom fighter".

And when he wants to get across to you, he does everything possible to track you down. Nobody in his office gets letters or invitation cards without earlier notice irrespective of where they originated from. You just can’t reach him, and if you work for a courier company, it is nearly-impossible for you to deliver a package to his office.

Indeed, in many instances, the kidneys only happen to suffer collateral damage from other illnesses.

North Korea, a country where private computer ownership is illegal and most civilians can only access a tiny, closed intranet through shoddy knock-off software, is not the sort of place where you might expect to find the scariest and most talented of hackers. But reports from both ABC News and the Associated Press on the sudden computer crashes at South Korean banks and TV broadcasters pointed to speculation that North Korea was behind the cyber shutdown.
There are three pieces of circumstantial evidence: First, North Korea recently threatened the South (which it does all the time); second, the North itself recently experienced a bizarre and unexplained widespread computer outage that appeared to be linked to a possible outside attack. The third piece is the most persuasive: More evidence suggests that North Korea was behind past, similar attacks.

9 fascinating facts about how the world uses social networks

follow @moshmustapha on twitter for more or like on facebook Mosh Byte



The team at bit.ly, a popular link-tracking service, has come out with an interesting new analysis on how people use social media around the world.
To make the report, bit.ly tracked clicks on its links from 220 countries over the course of 12 months. (To give you an idea of how many clicks that is, the site has logged more than 100 billion since January 2011.) Bit.ly then analyzed which social networks referred the biggest proportion of traffic in each country, indexing them against the world average.
The results are intriguing, though they come with a caveat — the data  measure only links filtered through the Bit.ly universe, and not all Internet traffic or users overall.

1. Almost everyone uses Twitter, Facebook and YouTube heavily — except in China, where those services are blocked. (Bit.ly doesn’t have data for North Korea or a few African and Pacific countries, possibly because there’s too little data.)
