    Jon, this is a great update from the field, reminding me of other IDP camp web initiatives like the (reported on the <a href = http://humanitarianfutures.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/kakuma-refugee-newsletter/>HFP Blog here, actual site here).  


    I just expanded on your field report and discussed some of the more interesting implications of this in a post on our blog, entitled  I see your post as part of an overall trend towards greater remote surveillance and connectivity in the aid community, which has both positive and negative consequences.  <P>
    This has sparked an interesting conversation bouncing between a few blogs, which I'd appreciate you and your readers thoughts on.  


    Best,
    Noah
