FIFA’s clever business model.

I don’t really care much for the FIFA® Football™ World™ Cup™ 2010™ right here in South™ Africa™. Nothing against it, I’m simply not a fan of soccer™. I must admit, I do admire FIFA®’s ability to squeeze money out of a sport™. You simply slap everyone with lawyers letters if

One word for the Amazon Kindle for iPhone

Community newspapers: Tyger Burger vs. George Herald

The legend of Koos Lee

Two very creative and talented brothers Pieter and Romano de Beer from 12Eleven productions are telling the story of the Legend Koos Lee in a series of short episodes. As they put it: Annoying Sound-FX, Over-Acting, Cheesy Dialogue, Zooms galore & senseless Violence… this is Kung-Fu Moviemaking at its best. Prepare for

How does this happen in magazines?

Seriously, I thought magazines have people that check things and cross check and proof read, etc… How does this slip through the cracks? As terrible as this is though, it is FUNNY!

Pubsubhubbub on Google appspot

It is the weirdest thing. I was having issues subscribing to blogs that is using pubsubhubbub.appspot.com using a Python script. It returned a 500 Internal Server error without fail. So I rewrote the process in PHP and like magic, it is gone… I used PHP and CURL to subscribe
