Mxit, the most successful African social media platform so far (in terms of user uptake at least) closed its operations a week ago. in this podcast we discuss some of the challenges that it met and what could have been a contribution to its demise. We also discuss the Zimpapers results and their reflection on a move towards digital, the ShonaNdebele Tutor e-learning service and the return of Tengai, Econet’s online classifieds platform which now has a new name, Ownai.
