The Kamusi Project - The Internet Living Swahili Dictionary

My Christmas treat was to find The Kamusi Project | The Internet Living Swahili Dictionary at Yale University. It's a living dictionary of words, grammar, history and culture, which you can also edit (once you're registered). It's bilingual and has a discussion forum in Swahili. It's wonderfully tidy and easy to navigate. I've been happily to find not only the content, but also the design of the site.

In conjunction with the Open Swahili Localization Project at the University of Dar es Salaam they have produced some free Swahili software for children called "TuKsi Koti la Rangi" (or Tux Paint). Until next year it's only available on Windows, but the press release and download is here.
