"If an Arab and a Jew can look at one another and see the Akashic lineage and see the one family, there is hope. If they can see that their differences no longer require that they kill one another, then there is a beginning of a change in history. And that's what is happening now. All of humanity, no matter what the spiritual belief, has been guilty of falling into the historic trap of separating instead of unifying. Now it's starting to change. There's a shift happening."

“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Growing the Google Africa Team in 2011

Google Blog, Friday, January 7, 2011

2010 was a year packed with initiatives for the Google Africa team. Our entire cross-functional team has been striving to make the Internet a part of every day life in Sub-Saharan Africa and we’ve been engaged in a host of activities across the region.

There were a number of highlights this year - from G-days that have now become a regular part of our outreach program, to product launches such as Google Maps across the region, Gmail and Chrome in Amharic and Swahili, and YouTube in South Africa. We also celebrated the continent’s passion for football, including through our Doodle for Google competition in three African countries, launched the University Access Program in Lagos, and swept Accra with flash mobs to announce the launch of Google Trader.




We’ve enjoyed sharing our reflections and passion with you through this blog and we’re delighted to report that in the coming year, we plan to grow our Africa team. We are expanding most of our teams, including Business, Sales, University Outreach, Developer Outreach and Marketing with over 20 open positions in Nairobi, Lagos, Accra, Johannesburg and Dakar.

We are looking for the most talented, creative, smart and energetic candidates. Our hiring bar remains extremely high, since at Google we believe that people are our most important asset. We value local knowledge in addition to international experience and exceptional academic achievements.

If you think you meet these requirements, or know someone who does, please submit your resume via our online system.
