I'll rather we work local and think global.

I strongly believe the local market it yet to be fully exploited and harnessed. This is were innovation comes in.

With the experience and knowledge gained, we become better placed to take on global challenges, competing globally with our peers.

Government and private institutions have very important roles to play most especially in areas of knowledge acquisition and patronage.

Yeah I believe you. What local content websites do we need? So far, we have:

1. Nairaland For Nigerian's Social Forums
2. Naij For Nigerian News
3. IrokoTv For Nigerian Videos.

Anymore

I do not understand

I agree with you that we need to focus on the local market, but what part? For Nigeria's Social Forum Market, Nairaland has dominated. For Nigeria's Video Market, IrokoTv has dominated and for Nigeria's News Market, Naij has dominated. For Nigeria's Job Market, Jobberman has dominate it. So what part of Nigeria's Local Market should we focus on and then from there move global?

By working local I meant the focus should be on harnessing opportunities within our local communities. The SMEs around, the schools around, the small offices, banks, telecom firms, manufacturing, health, law firms around. We should be able to identify the needs in this space and go on to meet it. By doing so we continuously improve our capability and also draw knowledge from the global pool. To succeed, you need to identify your market and carve your niche.

When we talk of IT, most people think its all about web and nairaland and naij and Ikeji. Its more than that. A computer scientist is a problem solver, a solution provider. Nairaland is more about meeting a need than creating a website. Heck, naij and Linda's blog are not the only news site.

Do we talk about crypts, security systems, expert systems, robotics, communications systems, artificial intelligence systems, parallel computing, compiler and OS development?

That's why a Computer Scientist or a similar post is useful in every field of human endeavour.

I feel you and I agree with you on everything you wrote.

Benefits of Learning C#
