Its office in Senegal is just one sign that IBM believes Africa will bring in billions. Lately it has been paying special attention to the continent, but it is not alone. Africa’s chief attraction is that it has been growing while richer regions have stalled. Its demographic prospects are promising, too.

And not just any old wireless http://econ.st/11gCiOL

Recent studies suggest that lions, too, are proficient hunters—but their tactics differ from those of females http://econ.st/17w0vFO
