hey, being from Africa: Yes, you could,though i dont in 'aid' and charity in Africa we need to resolve our problems, only then will we learn how to compete in the global economy. So for example, encourage entreprenuership etc. Take a look at the bigger picture being how do can you use your technology skills to programme/code something to make a difference? To assist with the issues being faced in Africa (And globally). i.e The current inflation being felt world wide, the energy crisis(fuel / power), the food crisis with the high prices of food, in places like the US it does not affect people and even for some people like myself it will not affect me since i can afford the higher prices. However when it comes to people who can just barely pay for their daily food, it leads to starvation. So yes, while we build 199999 Facebook(x) clone or silly little online app, millions of people out there are starving and can barely make ends meet. Think about that. There is a group created to put into action practical technology solutions to target some of these issues, feel free to join. http://groups.google.com/group/technologyforchange http://groups.google.com/group/technologyforchange
