An idea age

People all over are talking about ideas. Everybody these days has an idea in their mind.Some have many ideas. Good ideas. A friend of mine on facebook says everything they've thought of has already been implemented on an app.
"Every time I have an idea for a new App, I discouver that ten people already created something just like it." ~ George Harrison. Oyier 2012
Those who've made it had ideas. They just did not stop at that. When they implemented them then the difference in their ideas was manifested even when they seemed to have one idea. Youtube & vimeo are two similar video repositories. They however have differences that are distinct to their users. Facebook & Twitter yet being social platforms are so different. The users know that. The founders Jack & Mark had ideas which at the idea stage would have sounded similar. There'd have been people saying/asking why we need two social platforms. They'd even probably have suggested the two meet up and come up with 'One bigger social network'. Are we not seeing other players coming up as late as today.
Same thing applies to our ideas today. Somebody(person A) asked how m-health(an app that was being developed my one Joseph Mokaya) was different to medkenya (App by mbugua njihia & so and so). Someone else(person B) asked why WapiDamu(an initiative to help source for blood-donors) as opposed to WanaDamu(an initiative to get the blood-donors by person B's pals). Both personA and B were only shielding their friends as the 'originator' of that particular idea.We get ideas and we're so quick to shield others from coming up with an idea with similarities to ours saying that they copied 'our' idea. #Fail.

Ideas are from God i say. Let's accept that everybody else has and learn to work with those whose idea is like ours.

.....just my idea

Look, Tuju ako Ngangari

This post is not sponsored asin i'm not paid to campaign for Raphael Tuju or mention him in a positive way. If i'll be paid anyway then you'll also be paid for commenting or reading through still.

Raphael Tuju is the guy who insipes my post today. Lemme first of all describe his campaign and what i think is it's impact or rather how it's working out.

Twitter
I'm really sorry bwana tuju for missing out on your full handle without an underscore. You're aware 'chelewa chelewa....' so that's why you're handle remains @raphael_tuju.

Your profile looks fine though the follower count is a little behind considering your opponents wako farthest. maybe you can consider doing a followback to catch up with the rest of them. Again your account is not verified but that's no big deal, with time we get to trust you with the content you have on it.

Hashtags: your best hashtag so far was #tujusheng. Worry not what we tweeps make fun of, in the end it's publicity is constant whether good or not so good.

Your youtube is also good at 58 subscribers, you know how good the sheng vid did you. It was funny, hilarious, captivating and just unexpected,
There was even a message for you by one of youtube, i hope you saw it, why don't you dare kenyans to upload videos of themselves with messages to you, it would be a fun idea, don't you think?



5,441 hits for this and still counting.


my point, raphael Tuju's campaign online though young, is something to look at, personally i like how it's being done, the content, plust the creativity in communicating to the online kenyans.
Stay ngangari my guy
