ICT Telecom Summit Namibia 2011

Last week I was invited to the ICT Telecom Summit at the Safari Hotel! This was my first time here since this annual event  started about 3 years ago,  when I was in the US. This conference main purpose is to bring all different kinds of people and companies together in the IT industry. Here I had a chance to learn about the new, and future innovations in the Tech sector. Interesting enough some of the stuff I learned a couple years ago in the US, were considered as new in Namibia. according to one of the speakers, in the western world, one can transfer a skype call to a landlines or cell. I have done that already about 3 years ago in the USA this is not new to me. Facebook was also used as a great example for business. I have to admit that FB can be distracting, yet its a powerful tool if used accordingly. I sold books to friends and to strangers via facebook.
Yes there were many great things I learned. Like more on  the IT buzz word cloud computing. It's here where I learned the different kinds of cloud computing, (Private, Public, Hybrid and much more), and learned the details on cloud computing. Window 8 is coming soon!!!! It has some cool stuff, neat User Interface. Overall the conference was informative. To learn more visit: ICT Telecom Summit
