I’m In Love With TwoCents

<span class="html-content"><p>I’ve been building social products for 8 years. Social networks, social games, social payments and the like. I like to think of myself as something of an expert at social products. </p> <p>I can’t remember how I discovered TwoCents but it was probably on Twitter. And like I always do when I discover social products being built in naija, I did a product tear down, looked for the founder and connected.</p> <p>I used the product once and kind of forgot at it. Till the founder post a link to an article of his WhatsApp status and I reengaged with the platform. It was then I realized the thing that makes TwoCents a powerful idea. TwoCents can be the platform that provides a space for Africans to express novel ideas, big ideas, radical ideas, alternative philosophies. It can be the space where the reality of tomorrow lives as ideas today. It can be the place where divergent thinkers meet to deliver, discuss, and debate the ideas and values that will shape the future of the continent. </p> <p>It is an extremely niche idea. But it is an extremely powerful one. And one that can shape the future. I can’t wait to see where this goes. </p> <p>What do you envision the future of TwoCents to be?</p> </span>
