VANS LICENCE DELAYS ADVERSELY AFFECT 2010 INFRASTRUCTURE PLANS 2006-11-30 12:00:00 The Independent Communications Authority of SA (ICASA) has informed the Internet Service Providers' Association of SA (ISPA) that VANS (Value-Added Network Services) licence applications submitted to the Regulator from 19 July 2006 may not be processed for up to 24 months.
"The delay means that South African VANS providers planning to invest in infrastructure to help make the 2010 Soccer World Cup a success, will only be able to start implementing their plans 18 months before the event kicks off," said Ant Brooks, general manager of ISPA.
Already suffering from an unfortunate lack of resources and funding, the Regulator of an industry key to South Africa's Soccer World Cup plans has attributed this specific delay to delays in finalising some regulatory provisions relating to the new Electronic Communications Act (EC Act), and to an unwillingness to create confusion between licences issued under the old Telecommunications Act of 1996 and the EC Act.
While the move to the new Ele Read more:LICENCE

VIA Announces SPI Support Across All Processor Platforms 2006-11-24 14:51:00 VIA Technologies, Inc today announced support for the advanced SPI bus in all new VIA South Bridge chipsets.
The SPI bus is an advanced I/O bus that makes the support of system BIOS simpler and more cost effective through an onboard BIOS programming module.

ILLEGAL OPERATORS PUT INTERNET USERS AT RISK 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Adding to the woes of electricity-starved South Africans is news that many of us may face information black-outs because some wireless Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are providing illegal Internet access to consumers.The Independent Communications Authority of SA (ICASA) is cracking down on those wireless ISPs who do not hold an Electronic Communications Service license and are using the public 2.4 GHz frequency band for commercial purposes.This frequency band cannot be used to build and sell services on because it is limited for use in Local Area Networks (LANS) such as office parks or homes."Consumers who didn't carefully choose wireless ISPs with solid regulatory track records now face disconnection as ICASA cracks down on illegal operators. Many offending wireless ISPs are not even aware that they need a Value Added Network Service (VANS) license to provide commercial Internet access services," said Antony McKechnie iBurst's Head of Product Development.Adding to consumer Read more:OPERATORS
Review Stuff and Get paid! 1970-01-01 00:59:59 "The following is a paid review:"It seems to good to be true and it might also throw the world of advertising into complete confusion. OK, it's been happening before but just not as obviously. New website, ReviewMe, is out to try something that has been hidden under the table for way too long. You, as a blogger, will get paid to write reviews on products, services, websites, just about anything out there. Advertisers flock to the website and browse through blog, just like this one, and decide to place a product review on that site. Don't get me wrong, it's not a product placement, just a request for a review. Kind of like you see on this site. Once a review of the product is up, you earn cash, in Dollars, for that review. Does the review have to be positive? I am still not sure, but I think that human nature will tend for that review to be positive. It's a win-win for all. Advertisers get a huge viral campaign going and the Blogger gets paid for doing something that he

From BoingBoing: A free memoir by a London ambulance driver 1970-01-01 00:59:59 London ambulance
memoir under CC license By noemail@noemail.org (Cory Doctorow) Cory Doctorow: Tom sez, "I've just released my new book under a CC license, this is the first book by a UK author and a major European publisher to be released in this fashion (as far as we know). It is simultaneous with the book being sold in major bookstores." The book is Blood, Sweat and Tea: real-life stories from the London Ambulance Service, based on Tom's blog about his experiences as a London ambulance tech. Link (Thanks, Tom!) Update: Charlie Stross points out: Actually, the first that I know of in the UK was Net.wars by Wendy Grossman -- admittedly published by NYU Press, but she's based in London and it went out online in, um, 98 or 99 or thereabouts. And ACCELERANDO was released under CC with the kind permission of Orbit back in 2005.
From BoingBoing: Free online word processor from Google 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Google launches free, kick-ass word-processor
By noemail@noemail.org (Cory Doctorow)Cory Doctorow: Google has re-lauched Writely, the online
word-processor they recently bought, in public beta. Writely does everything most thingsWord does, for free -- and saves its output as PDFs and even RSS feeds(subscribe to a word-processor doc!). It features collaborative editing-- multiple editors on the same doc at once -- and can be used as theeditor for writing your blog, saving out to a post instead of a file onyour machine. This is a great-looking program for people who havealways-on Internet, and for so long as you don't worry about the NSAdemanding that Google turn over its Writely files as part of some"security" procedure.

Wikipedia can be seen by China 1970-01-01 00:59:59 Online enyclopedia Wikipedia
was accessible again in China
on Thursday after being blocked for more than a year, a move hailed by free media advocacy group Reporters Without Borders.The main page of the Chinese-language version of Wikipedia (zh.wikipedia.org) could be displayed and searches for apolitical terms turned up results, but searches for subjects taboo to China's Communist leadership, such as "June 4," remained blocked.June 4, 1989, was the date that China's military crushed a student-led movement for political change centered on Beijing's Tiananmen Square, killing hundreds and possibly thousands. The incident remains among the most sensitive subjects for the country's state-controlled media.China routinely blocks access to Web sites it deems subversive and filters Internet pages for sensitive words.It was unclear why Wikipedia, blocked since October 2005, was again accessible.A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said she had not heard of reports regarding Wikipedia, but

Albert is one of very few South Africans that is actually trying to make money off of the Internet, instead of just putting up a brouucher of sorts.Good luck to him and everything that Jump.co.za stands for.South African consumers now have an online shopping Search Engine at theirdisposal.

The answer to this is one big YES.With the onlineretail in South Africa now standing on more than R500m per annum, OnlineShopping is clearly an area that needs focus and direction. Ju

I am sure that they will add a little margin and then I am sure that we are going to have to pay taxes anyway, so the product could cost a little more than it should, but we should now, at last, get our products the same time as those Americans.Let me know how the system works.

Another Example of us being fleased 1970-01-01 00:59:59 So, you ran out and bought your R4000 Xbox 360 when it was released. You plugged it in and ran the newsest Xbox 360 game and you were impressed. You read in the manual about the great option of running games in High Definition and you wondered what that was. We here in South Africa haven't even heard about HD, let alone see a real HD screen.Then you read about the Xbox Live option. Yay, you thought. I will be able to play games against real people all over the world. in fact, the game you bought has a multiplayer option. It costs extra because of it. You KNOW that the game would cost less without the multiplayer option, it makes sense, less code, cheaper game.But NOOOOOOO. We low lifes here in South Africa are not good enough for the XBox Live option. According to Microsoft, out broadband isn't broad enough. Yet we pay the same price as these people in the US and A who can now download movies and TV programmes to the VERY SAME Xbox 360 that you bought. Doesn't that make you a littl Read more:Example
