With voting now over, Libraries Across Africa finished in 19th position out of 1450 entries, and we had 8840 votes, all thanks to you. http://www.dellsocialinnovationcompetition.com/ideaList?lsi=3


While we did not automatically qualify for the next round on the basis of votes (only top 10 automatically qualify), we believe very strongly that we will qualify for the semifinal based on the merit of our concept, when the other semi-finalists are announced on March 1.

We will be back for your votes then to move into the final, but in the meantime, we would like to say thank you to all Nairalanders, and ask you to follow Libraries Across Africa on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Libraries-Across-Africa/142443189113379
Also, one good thing that happened due to your support was we got a very important call from Intel regarding the LAA project.

Keep up the votes , help us maintain the current position

4 more hours, guys lets keep it going, to at least stay in top 20!

Some good news though- this morning we got approached by Intel West Africa- apparently they had seen our page on the Dell Competition site, and they are interested in partnering with us.

Dis Guy:
_{I think you should open this thread in other sections as well especially romance and maybe sports and job/careers}

I would be accuse dof spamming and be banned.

But what if you could convince ten of your friends to vote for us (with two of their email address) -that will give us 200 points. Now imagine if there were 20 other people who did the same thing, we would be assured of winning.

A lot of times when we complain of the way things are, I marvel at how much we underestimate what we can really do if we just decided to do it!

Just imagine if every university student could get acces to the latest journal on a reseach topic, if every entrepreneur could look up ways to improve his invention, the possibilities are boundles,

In addition to a strong belief in education, LAA believes in the power of entrepreneurship. A common denominator of African societies is a strong commitment to the survival power of the human spirit. We understand that people are entrepreneurial and are willing to do what they can to meet their communities needs if given the opportunity.

This is our vision of empowerment through access.

This is the opportunity for you to help us achieve our vision!

Michaeli:
Really good idea,I work on e-learning solutions myself. I'll contact you through your website.

Thanks for the support- you can email idris@librariesacrossafrica.org


Keep on spreading the word, we need all the votes we can get

We are currently in 16th position, but if only 500 more people voted for us, we would be assured of top 10.

Most of the teams in the top 10 only got there in the last 24 hours, and you will notice they mostly have an Indo-Pakistani affiliation; so their people are taking it serious and voting!

Thanks to all for their support. It's not over until it's over.

Contnue to spread the message and get people to vote.

Also spread through your networks and get your friends to vote. We need lots more votes!

7240 votes, lets go! View and Vote!

Guys , thanks for your votes. We are now at 7180 but have fallen to 16th position.

Help us get to top 10. Let's get to 12000 votes today. Vote and post the number here once you have voted.

Thanks. It's not against the rules. It's the number of unique email addresses that count

I appreciate your vote. You can vote multiple times with different email addresses.

How I wish all the viewers woult take a minute to vote.

We complain about INEC/Jega and how our votes dont count, yet,

The way the Indians and Pakistanis are voting amazes me; 33,000 votes to our own 6900 votes, and yet of all the African teams, we are the ones with the most votes!

All these ghost viewers, please vote for us!

@Jarus, the thing is back up o. We need your votes to get us to top 10, we are being edged out by the Idian and Pakistani teams.
