GetPodcasting.co.za 2007-04-05 17:46:26 ’n NUWE projek is onlangs bekend gestel om Podcasting in Suid-Afrika te bevorder. Get Podcasting (www.getpodcasting.co.za) is daarop gemik om lede van die publiek die geleentheid te gee om hul eie podcasts te skep en dan op die blad te plaas.
Ander gebruikers kan dan maklik daarna gaan luister en beoordeel hoe goed dit is. Apple Inc, Mini, 5fm en Coca-Cola is die borge van hierdie projek en jy kan daagliks groot pryse wen.
Jy neem jou eie podcast (oudio of video) op en nadat jy jou gratis geregistreer het, laai jy dit op die blad.
Ander gebruikers kan dan na jou podcast gaan luister of daarna kyk en hulle kan dit beoordeel. Daar is R250 000 se pryse wat gewen kan word.
Staan elke dag ’n kans om ’n iPod Shuffle te wen. Al wat jy hoef te doen is om na die ander podcasts te luister en te beoordeel. Dit kan nie makliker wees nie.
Gaan vandag nog na die blad om te luister en te kyk!
En indien jy iets het om te sê, neem dit op en plaas dit op die blad vir ons almal om na
Tech in your Kitchen 2007-04-01 13:44:18 FOR the past few years I have had this idea of having a computer that will keep track of everything in my kitchen.It will be able to compile a grocery list and also make suggestions of what I will be able to prepare by checking what I have available in my kitchen at that specific moment.
rying to figure out exactly what I can prepare drives me crazy and in the end I just go and buy all the ingredients that are needed for something that I have made thousands of times before.
After installing the computer I have not been able to come across the perfect program to run this concept. I found three websites which make life easier. It still is not exactly what I wanted, but it’s a start.
These websites can really make your life easier if you have an entire family to cook for. There are quite a number of these websites, but these are my favourites: www.grouprecipes.com, www.recipematcher.com and www.allrecipes.com
These sites also have active communities that contribute to the recipes that a Read more:Kitchen
WOMF - Word of Mouth Forum 2007-04-01 13:43:20 DIE afgelope week of twee het ons almal op die plaaslike radiostasie gehoor dat ons moet Womf. Maar wat op aarde kan hierdie “gewomfery” nou eintlik wees? Womf staan vir Word Of Mouth Forum
.
Soveel keer gebeur dit dat ek geweldig ontevrede is met diens wat ek by een of ander onderneming ontvang het en dan wil ek dit graag aan die hele land verkondig en verseker dat dit nie aanhou gebeur nie. Daar is ook ander tye wat ek sulke goeie diens ontvang dat ek die hele wêreld na hierdie onderneming wil stuur om te verseker dat almal in hierdie goeie diens kan deel. Die vraag was altyd hoe doen ek dit? Hoe nou gemaak?
Wel, nou is daar Womf. Hierdie webblad is die antwoord. Hier kan jy jou registreer en jou mening uitspreek oor dienste en produkte en sê of jy gelukkig was of nie. Jy kan ander gebruikers waarsku en seker maak dat niemand anders die foute maak wat jy gemaak het nie. So leer ons uit mekaar se foute.
Dit is belangrik dat soveel as moontlik mense egter aan hierdie for
MyVideo.co.za - Share video online (South African) 2007-04-01 13:41:33 MYVIDEO.CO.ZA is South
Africa’s largest video
sharing website. Youtube.com has had enormous success all around the world and I am really excited about this South African
version of this popular website.
MyVideo.co.za has, however, brought some new and exciting features to the table in the form of viral marketing. Through this, advertisers can actually advertise on videos which are popular. This is great news for advertisers who want the right platform to increase their brand awareness.
Social networking has been an ever increasing phenomenon around the world and combining this service with a marketing platform, will enable the service to improve considerably. When I visited the website the first time, it was great watching local content online
.
You are able to find it on international websites but having it on the front page of a local site just makes it better. You can rate the videos, share it easily with friends and post comments on the website. MyVideo.co.za is based in Cape Read more:Share
Online Conferences - EduOnline2007 2007-04-01 13:38:14 EVERY evening this week I am attending a conference in South America. Yes, through the wonder of the Internet, I am able to work during the day and then from 17:00 to 01:00 I am attending live conference sessions and interacting with other delegates at the EduOnline2007 Conference.
This is the second online conference that I have attended and the previous one was about a year ago. Things have changed quite a bit. The quality of the audio and video has increased unbelievably. This has all happened not only because of the improvement of the infrastructure of the Internet worldwide, but also the software and compression techniques used to manage the delegates and their connections to the main venue.
When I was first invited to attend this conference I was worried about the bandwidth that would be used each day as it is quite a few hours that I will be receiving audio and video over the Internet.
The reality, however, is that the bandwidth usage was very low. How they manage it will be a Read more:Conferences
Goedkoper Internet bly ‘n droom 2007-04-01 13:36:24 EK sit vroeër die week en luister na een van my gunsteling-”podcasts” uit Amerika. Een van die stories wat onder bespreking was, was hoe ontevrede kliënte was met een van die Amerikaanse internetdiensverskaffers wat &lsquo
;n onbeperkte internetopsie aan kliënte bied, maar eintlik was hierdie opsie se beperking 200 GIG per maand.
My eerste reaksie was natuurlik dat ek nie kan glo dat enigiemand soveel data in ‘n maand kan aflaai nie, maar dan besef ek dat die spoed waarteen Amerikaners inligting van die net kan aflaai 10 of 20 keer vinniger is as die spoed wat ons in Suid-Afrika beskikbaar het.
Baie Amerikaanse internetgebruikers huur flieks op die internet en laai dit af, soos wat ons ‘n DVD sou gaan huur by ons naaste videowinkel.
Ons het beperkings van 3 GIG of 10 GIG per maand en dit is onbetaalbaar duur. ‘n Soortgelyke diens in Amerika kos sowat R300 per maand en sluit alles in: van jou lynhuur tot die diensverskaffer se tarief.

Advertising - a collaborative approach 2007-04-01 13:34:58 ON Sunday night (or rather Monday morning at 01:00 SA time) it was time for the American Super Bowl. This event is one of America’s biggest annual events. Every year companies spend millions on producing a striking advertisement to be shown on television during the Super Bowl.
For the last two years GoDaddy (parent company of www.wookio.com) has grabbed the attention of audiences around the world by creating ads that are sexy and almost too hot for television. Every year millions of visitors rushed to their website to view the ads that were rejected by the television executives. This online hype has shown other companies that they would have to involve the internet community.
This year various companies produced ads and then placed them online for internet users to view. They could then vote for their favourites and the ads with the most votes were shown during the Super Bowl.
This is significant if you take into consideration that the average price for a ticket to attend the super b Read more:Advertising
Windows Vista 2007-04-01 13:33:28 WINDOWS VISTA is uiteindelik hier. Die afgelope paar maande was ek een van die Beta-toetsers van hierdie nuwe weergawe van Windows
en uit die staanspoor was ek opgewonde.
Ek het gevoel ek was meer produktief met hierdie weergawe - daar is honderde funksies wat my lewe baie makliker gemaak het. Windows Vista
sal binnekort oral in Suid-Afrika beskikbaar wees en ek sal een van die eerste ouens in die ry wees om die finale weergawe te koop en op my rekenaar te installeer. Indien jy in die mark vir ‘n nuwe rekenaar is, is dit ‘n goeie idee om seker te maak dat jy van vandag af slegs ‘n rekenaar koop wat reeds Windows Vista
op het. Indien nie, sal jy in ‘n later stadium dalk wil opgradeer en dan sal dit jou heelwat meer kos.
Indien jy nie seker is of jou rekenaar geskik is vir Windows Vista nie, kan jy na die Windows-webblad gaan (die skakel is op www.clickkliek.com) om dit te toets.
Ek het Dinsdag ‘n aantal mense toegespreek oor tegnologie en Web 2.0 en toe e
The future of Television is online 2007-04-01 13:32:24 TELEVISION as we know it, will be changing considerably in the next few years.
This revolution has started with youtube.com.
As I previously wrote in one of my columns, youtube.com is a social networking tool that enables people from all over the world to easily share videos with their friends and anyone who would like to view it.
The distribution of video content online
in an easy and effective way has been difficult due to the large amounts of bandwidth that is needed to distribute high quality video. Video files need to be large to ensure a high quality image for you to watch.
High network speeds are also needed as you do not want to wait weeks just to view one file.
Luckily, worldwide, the cost of bandwidth is dropping and speeds are picking up.
We can only hope that this trend will also be one to catch on in South Africa.
The creators of Skype.com and Kazaa.com, two hugely successful internet services, have now taken on the task of finding a way to distribute huge video fil Read more:Television
Lees boeke stukkie vir stukkie 2007-04-01 13:31:17 IN vandag se gejaagde lewe is dit baie moeilik om werklik te gaan sit en ‘n boek te lees.
En soms voel dit dat jy tyd mors as jy nie iets lees wat met jou werk verband hou nie.
Ons lees egter elke dag honderde e-posse en daar is altyd tyd om te kyk watter nuwe e-posse vir ons wag.
As ‘n mens nou net die twee kon kombineer.
Wel, jy kan. Een van die nuwe opkomende internet-konsepte of -dienste wat onlangs begin het, maar wat daagliks groei, is DailyLit.com.
Hierdie diens neem die hele boek en deel dit in stukkies op.
Jy ontvang dan elke dag ‘n gedeelte van die boek.
Jy ontvang net genoeg om vinnig nog ‘n stukkie van die boek te lees.
Môre ontvang jy die volgende gedeelte.
As jy op ‘n dag meer tyd het, kan jy ook dadelik vir nog ‘n deel van die boek vra deur op ‘n skakel, in die e-pos wat jy ontvang het, te kliek.
Wanneer jy www.DailyLit.com besoek, kan jy deur die databasis gaan en uit ‘n hele reeks klassieke boeke kies.
