6. M-Pesa, the Kenyan branchless banking system
undoubtedly stole the headlines, judging by the
Tweets and ReTweets and is a very African success
story. Not only is it now the biggest bank in the world
with 8 million customers, but annual money transfers
are now equivalent to 20 – 25% of Kenya’s total GDP,
depending on who you believe has the most up-to-
date facts. Many banks will clearly try to replicate this
and probably most will fail, but it does paint a great

14. • When most everyone shouts, few listen. How
about electronic publishing? Try reading a
book on disc. At best, it's an unpleasant chore:
the myopic glow of a clunky computer
replaces the friendly pages of a book. And you
can't tote that laptop to the beach. Yet
Nicholas Negroponte, director of the MIT
Media Lab, predicts that we'll soon buy books
and newspapers straight over the Intenet. Uh,
