Last month I warned about scam messages from known contacts urgently requesting money. The case that prompted that post has now thankfully been resolved and everyone who received the messages acted with the appropriate caution and it appears nobody lost money. Kofi Odum, a Kabissa member in Ghana, has given me permission to post the message he sent to all of his contacts after Yahoo!

I learned today via Tech Crunch that Google Sites Become Prettier With Templates, and had a poke around in Kabissa's own Google Sites account. I found that, indeed, it is now possible to choose from a range of attractive and apparently thoughtfully designed website templates. This includes the depicted "NGO template" tailored for organizations that typically want to display the same kind of info on an impactful site.

As of June 30, 2009, Kabissa is no longer hosting websites, mailing lists or email. We are still providing technical support, however, and continue to stand by to help you to connect with the best hosting providers and online services available online for creating a professional and effective presence using ICT.
