For good or ill, your conversation is your advertisement; each time you open your mouth and speak you allow the world into your mind is a dazzling word from an inventor and innovator in the field of advertising. This outstandingly shows the power of conversation in the everyday activities of the human person. You are indeed welcome to the Villagetalk Education Network! As a platform where everybody is somebody and everything you put in is taking somewhere and the intending purpose is met and your identity rightly attached to the actualized benefits, VEN's power is the magic tricks of the Internet. Tricks believe to be source where Africa's long awaited dreams are attached to the source where she can download and feel the results at a pace that's just too exhausting; at a click of a mouse! with the Internet, it is an end to the old fashioned concept of sending snail mail by someone who is at the peak of death yet has his throat choked up with debris, unable to speak and completely has nothing at hand to revise the current weakness.

Villagetalk Education Network (VEN) uses the Internet to reach the UN Millennium goals for development and other global initiatives at the local, national, regional and international levels through another dimension of educational programme that's both screen and paper reading centered and uses the information and communication technology tools' presence to bring massive solutions to the African most pressing perils of poverty, illiteracy, failure of socio-economic development policies, health related problems, weaknesses in education sectors as a result of brain drain syndrome and backwardness and paralysis in business organizations when it comes to competitiveness in the global market. A writer of the foreword to the Cluetrain manifesto(the end of business as usual), Thomas Petsinger Jr. (who is also a writer to Wall street journal} says, “The Internet puts me in touch with thousands of them who act as my scouts. On this particular day, one of my correspondents urged me to check out a new site at Clue Train. I was dumbstruck. There in a few pages, I read a sterlingly concise summary of everything I had seen in twenty-one years as a reporter, editor, bureau chief and columnist for my newspaper. The idea that business at bottom is fundamentally human. That engineering remains second-rate without aesthetics. That natural human conversation is the true language of commerce. That corporations (both public and private) work best when people on the inside have the fullest contact possible with the people on the outside.” No doubt his statement summarizes what the cluetrain manifesto did to the Internet world.

However, this is not far away from what VEN (with the magic of the Internet) wishes to see come to past in the history of the saga of Africa's challenges and her Everyday struggle to find the way out. Village talk serves as the African peoples' voice, in finding solutions to those challenges at a nick of time through education, ICT for development and profit. About ten thousands of years roll by, a curios thing happened to the human race, we discovered we had serious need to acquire more knowledge- both scientific, technical and practical, and that - at a volume more than we could conveniently keep safe in our brains. Therefore, we studied to save large quantities of information out of over bodies by inventing writing. And a lot of developments have come in-between since then, notably: printing, which allows easy duplication of books, letters and communiqué, what a magic!

With the fast growth of knowledge and wisdom in the world, it recently became an observation that the other process wasn't effective to offer a satisfactory operation and control of today's business systems, the transformation of educational sectors and the strengthening of health instructions to give quality service delivery to the human persons, hence the down of a new breakthrough in the field of information an communication technology, which gave birth to the electronic storage and movement of information from one organization to another at a much greater speed, across almost all continent of the universe. A new conversation style that still causes most of traditional corporations to dazzle and sleep in skeptism to its reality! This disclosed truth is that, unlike other developed and well industrialized nations of the world, Africa is yet to fully get into the pool of this dramatic revolution, therefore the main reason for the high lever of disbelief in the effectiveness of the modern inter-networked market concept for discovering and inventing new conversational ways to help solve their pressing issues.

In the same development, Villagetalk Education Network targets at helping Africa in her development projects through the introduction of this cost effective innovation with one of its aims as to bridge the digital gap between education, business, healthcare, communication and economic development, having in mind a single objective of alleviating poverty and restoring Africa's lost glory, dignity and scope through making access to ICT facilities and universal basic education for the populace a dream in manifestation.
