Africa blogging round up

The video above is the first episode of a new video blog, The Nata Village Video Blog.   The Nata Village Blog is a new project by the staff of an HIV clinic in Nata, Botswana.  The clinic's work days begin with a song, as you can see above.  With the assistance of some international travelers with tech skills, the blog has become quite an impressive use of services like Typepad, Flickr, Blip.TV and PayPal

In other Africa blogging news, a project I worked on called Enough is Enough Zimbabwe  launched today.  Zimbabwe is a place just recently torn apart by despotism and political conflict and there's a very active blogosphere there.  Enough aggregates multi-media content regarding Zimbabwe, including many of the country's blog feeds and has original content written by one of the country's most prominent (though anonymous) bloggers.  It will also point to photos and video hosted off-site that are tagged for inclusion in the Enough listings.

If you're interested in how blogs and new social media are being used in Africa in general and Zimbabwe in particular - one of the best places to look is GlobalVoicesOnline.org.
