I am profoundly excited about my new passion and adventure online. First I revived my social media life through actively participating on Twitter as my major platform and very soon LinkedIn. With the growing usage of the internet we are left with no options but to fall in.  The Inside Box East Africa is a platform i will be using to put across my opinions on given topics and also to communicate closely with all other people around the world.

I am curiously looking forward to hearing all your thoughts in my comments box. By Jackie Lumbasi  lumbasinake@gmail.com
