Don't forget to proclaim your attendance in typical Web 2.0 fashion on your blog, Upcoming, and Facebook, too!
Why? Show your support for the local geek culture in Kenya for starters. The whole event is free for attendees and put on through the goodwill of the community. We're looking for more sponsors to cover some of the costs of putting this together. If you are that person, or know an organization that should, have them contact Josiah Mugambi, Erik Hersman or Riyaz Bachani.
So far, we have sponsorships by, Ushahidi (t-shirts) and O'Reilly (bags).
