Topic: JF Focus: Interview with Maxence Melo

Salam kwa members wote.

It has been six years now since Jamii Forums was launched, and since its very inception it has been a controversial forum. There were numerous rumors as to who were behind its creation and the intentions of its founders vis a vis the Tanzanian politics.

Today JamiiForums is believed to be the largest East African Forum, with more than 87,000 members (and counting) and its growth in Tanzania is faster than international social media like facebook or twitter. We can see members interacting under different type of membership, we read articles from Fikra Pevu, we have seen a Kenyan Forum and all these indicate a new direction for Jamii forums.

Given the alleged influence it had on the 2010 elections and the role it is currently playing in shaping he public opinion, several questions come to some of us: Who is Maxence Melo? who else could be behind Jamii Forums? What was the idea behind the creation of Jamii Forums? How is Jamii Forums positioning itself in the Tanzanian Political, economic and social sphere etc.

On Friday the 17th, at 11:00 AM east African Time (Saa tano asubuhi kamili saa za Africa Mashariki) we invite Jamii Forum Founder and owner, Maxence Melo, to respond to some of these questions. The interview will be conducted by King'asti, a long time JF member whom we believe has the necessary impartiality and perspicacity to ask Maxence pertinent questions that will enlighten our lanterns.

We welcome all questions from members and with Maxence permission we also welcome some suggestions on how to improve on Jamii Forum presence in the Tanzanian, Kenyan and eventually East African Community Political life.

We hope to have all Jamii Forums members online that day.


Karibuni

Mimi ni mgeni kabisa hapa kunako jf. Kinachonisumbua ni terminology zinazotumika humu jamvini. Utakuta mwanzo wa mada mara iandikwe 'sticky' mara 'topic' mara 'moved'. maneno haya yana tofauti gani?. Halaf hua naona humo katikati ya maelezo kuna wakati mnaandika MENTION= ikifuatiwa na namba nyingi nyingi. Mnamaanisha nini jamani?.

Kwanza kabisa,Mungu awabariki woote waliotoa wazo la kuwepo kwa hii forum,hakika ni darasa tosha,lakini ningependa kujua ni hatua gani zinachukuliwa na Mods kudhibiti topics ambazo hazina vyanzo vya kueleweka?

Asanteni sana, tunaendelea kupokea masuali toka kwa members. Hadi sasa ni suali 16 tu zilizo ulizwa (some questions were repeated) na Mkuu Maxence kasema anaweza kuongeza idadi ya suali zitakazo jibiwa kuhakikisha members wanaridhika na interview hii. Karibuni wote.

Maswali yatakuwa compiled pembeni. Kama la kwako hujaliona hapa, inawezekana kilikuwa na tatizo wakati wa ku-post. Kama hutojali, tafadhali liweke tena na litajumuishwa na mengine yatakayotoka jumamosi.
Karibu sana

Mimi ni mgeni kabisa hapa kunako jf. Kinachonisumbua ni terminology zinazotumika humu jamvini. Utakuta mwanzo wa mada mara iandikwe 'sticky' mara 'topic' mara 'moved'. maneno haya yana tofauti gani?. Halaf hua naona humo katikati ya maelezo kuna wakati mnaandika MENTION= ikifuatiwa na namba nyingi nyingi. Mnamaanisha nini jamani?.

Mkuu 'sticky' ni mjadala ambao umegandishwa katika Forum, ukiangalia kila forum ina 'sticky' katika ukurasa wake. Vigezo sielewi ila angalia hizo mada utakuta zote ni muhimu kulingana na forum husika.

Topic, ni mada yenyewe. Kama hii tuliopo hapa ni mada yenye topic inahusiana na 'JF Focus; Interview itayohusisha mmoja wa waanzilishi'

'moved' ni pale mada inapotolewa katika hilo jukwaa kupelekwa katika jukwaa lingine. Mara nyingi toka na mwenye mada hio kubandika bandiko lake katika Jukwaa ambalo halihusiani na alichobandika.

kumention Mzee wa ngano, ni moja ya njia hutumika kumjulisha member (ulie mmention) kuwa unataka aone/some uliloandika ili aweze jibu ama respond tokana na lile umeandika. Kama hapo nimeku mention ili ujuwe kuwa nimejibu baadhi ya maswali yako. Hata hivo kama unatumia simu mara nyingi kuona hii mention ni hadi uweke "Desktop" version.

Ahsante sana mkuu kwa kunijuza ila hapo kwenye MENTION bado kidogo. Mfano umeandika MENTION=84383. Hizi namba zina denote kitu gani mkuu. Na kuna tena kitu nimekiona leo ambacho nilisahau kukuuliza jana, nijuze maana ya news alert.

Mimi nauliza je wale ambao wana vyeo kama JF Premium,JF Gold,JF Bronze wao wanakuwa wanahisa katika JF??au wanachangia tu?Je wana mrahaba wowote wanaopata kutokana na mapato ya matangazo?Mwisho wanafaidika na nini na hivi vyeo?/kwako Roulette na timu yote ya JF asanteni.

Mkuu Salute,

Kuna mpango gani wa kuvihusisha vyombo vingine vya habari hasa Radio na TV kwa vipindi vya mahojiano mahususi kama vile anavyofanya ndugu yangu Yahya Mohamed pale Star TV Mwanza?

Kupitia mpango huo JF imejulikana na kuzoa umaarufu hata kwa wale wasiokuwa na access ya Internet, Juhudi hizi zinaendelezwa vipi ili kufikia hadhi ya forum kubwa za kijamii kama FB na tweeter.

Naamini siku moja JF itakuwa leading forum in Afrika.

Halaf hua naona humo katikati ya maelezo kuna wakati mnaandika MENTION= ikifuatiwa na namba nyingi nyingi. Mnamaanisha nini jamani?.

Mkuu, if you don't mind, ningekushahuri uanzishe thread jukwaa la complains, congrats and advice, utapata majibu. Ningekupa hata hapa ila kidogo naona kama tutakua off topic. In the mean time soma thread ya mkuu Invisible inayo sema: how to use JF effectively

Mnalionaje suala la kutengeneza JF Developers API? Hili litaongeza kasi ya ukuwaji wa JF. Angalieni twitter na facebook,kuna applications nyingi sana kuanzia computer simu hadi tablet! Pia pengine wengine wangependa ku iclude JF kwenye media zao mfano blogs n.k

mkuu Maxence Mero,ningependa fahamu ,Je ,idea ya kuunda jf imetoka ktk mtandao wa stormfront-white nationalist movement wa europe au its ur own innovation?

Kwa sababu zilizo nje na uwezo wake, Maxence Melo kaomba interview isogezwe saa sita kamili. Asanteni kwa uelewa.

afadhali, nimekuja mbio. Nilijua nimechelewa.

Inaonekana wewe ndie ulimchelewesha! Itakuaje mnaingia pamoja? (just kidding...)

Sijayaona maswali, ila nauliza wakati ananzisha huu mtandao focus yake ilikuwa ni nini. Na je amefikia malengo yake tarajiwa? Anajisikiaje kwa Hali ilivyo hivi sasa?
