Ushahidi got its start in early 2008. Founder Erik Hersman and a group of fellow Kenyan bloggers were frustrated by the lack of accurate information or media coverage of the violence surrounding the 2008 Kenyan election. Ushahidi entered our legendary third NetSquared Mashup Challenge in Santa Clara, California in May 2008.
