Shameless plug... I'm African. Cameroonian to be more precise. I grew frustrated with slow download speeds over the "cloud" and the recent obsession over "syncing". I personally prefer normal file transfers over syncing. I created my own tool that does file and folder transfers over a LAN... without Internet. My solution is P2P (no servers), has faster download speeds compared to the Internet, can work even with ad-hoc Wi-Fi hotspots, and is cross-platform (Windows Desktop, Linux, Mac OSX, iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8) . You should try Feem. http://tryfeem.com

I guess the ehm... how to put it nicely... "Eurocentricness" (?) of the screenshots are a deliberate choice and a real life example of the things you have to put up with as an African programmer?

Exactly. The "Eurocentricness" of my screenshots is a deliberate choice. I try to hide that I'm African as much as I can. I prefer email support over voice so that our users and customers don't have to deal with my heavy west african accent. Paypal is also blocked in my country (Cameroon), but I've succeeded to get an account set up for me in Europe. Why go through all of that trouble ? I believe the best path for an African entrepreneur is to build something that can compete and be sold at a global level. Right now, 73% of our users are in the USA.
