Here, set against the backdrops of Nairobi city and the beautiful landscape of Uhuru Park (Maasai country), a Kenyan choir sings the Indian national anthem.
The director has chosen the Indian anthem because Kenya is home to a sizeable Indian population (including Sikhs & Jains also) of approximately 2.5 million, most of them descendants of the East African Railways labourers who were brought over by the British during the late 19th and early 20th centuries when the British colonialists ruled Kenya and the rest of the East African region.
What does this mean for Shareaholic? More exposure, resulting in a bigger user & feedback community. According to Basil Hashem, the directory currently receives about 5 million pageviews per day with approximately 3% of the traffic to the recommended list.
None of this would be possible without your support. A BIG BIG thank you to Mozilla, and our users for supporting, using, and believing in Shareaholic.
After college, I stuck around Boston to work for Compete, Inc. where I helped kick start Compete.com. In March '08, Compete was acquired by Taylor Nelson Softres (LON:TNS).
I now lead Product for Lookery - a demographic marketing & data services company.
I live in Cambridge, MA and hope to spend more time in India soon.
