Once South Africa's premier blog aggregator Amatomu has been slowly losing popularity with both content creators and readers.

It seems that things have finally died as evidenced by the following message currently been displayed.














Arg! It's broken indeed!

It's a pity as although we still have Afrigator, this has a more African focus as opposed to South African focus. Fortunately this project has not dropped the ball, let's hope it stays that way.

I drove through Cape Town's Greenpoint Stadium precinct for the first time in quite a while yesterday and was extremely impressed with the progress made and the hive of activity that is evident in the area. There is little doubt that things will be ready on time!

The stadium is due for handover in December before the final finishing touches, mainly internal are completed.

Last night was the big switch on as the internal lighting was tested for the first time. Below are the spectacular results.

It seems that despite African National Congress spokesperson Brian Sokutu saying that there was nothing the ANC could do about the Free porn offers on the site reported on MyBroadband, there was indeed something that could be done. Take the website down altogether and remove the code.

I have long been an advocate for the service provided by NoiseTrade.com.
The concept is simple. Artists provide free access to selected songs to their fans in return for the fans marketing the music for them or a donation. What better way to the personal endorsements out on the worldwide web?

To celebrate their first year of existence,the are dropping the artist signup fee. Artists can now create a NoiseTrade widget (for inclusion fans blogs, websites etc.) and give away music to their fans for FREE. What's more they get given access to their fans' email addresses anytime they want. SA artists, it's a great time to take advantage of the service ... go for it!

Every school that has ever had a uniform policy has had issues with the enforcement of such a policy. In an attempt to get buy-in from his pupils, a local Cape Town school teacher employed a very different approach to a morning assembly.

Warning : You are about to be thoroughly entertained for the next 20 mins! Make sure you see the two minute 'highlights package' at the end of part 2.
