Description:The Electronic Village serves multiple purposes. First, it is the cyberspace home of Hicks Enterprises. In addition, this is a 'virtual village' created in the African tradition with an eclectic collection of insights, input and information. The Electronic Village is a concept more than anything else. A concept brought from Africa to cyberspace. Visit our website (www.ElecVillage.com). Most importantly, add your flavor to this blog! Enjoy the flow... We are a proud member of The AfroSpear!

My thanks to all of you. We hit our milestone of 100 readers today!

I think that my next goal is to increase the number of folks that have taken time to provide a RANKING. As of today's message we have 14 readers who have RANKED our blog. Let's see if we can move that number up to 50 (in honor of my 50th birthday)!

Can we do it?
