Away in Tanzania 

I am currently in Tanzania, attending TED Global 2007 as a fellow. This has been a fascinating summit with a terrific exchange of ideas between the proponents of aid-based development like Bono, and most Africans in the room. I will write up a full dispatch once I have a little more time on my hands. In the meanwhile, let me recommend Tanzania and Kenya to everyone who has not been here. There are few places I know that are more beautiful and attending TED at the foothills of Mount Meru with Mount Killimanjaro in the distance has been a surreal experience.
