This is so exciting! I'm in a crowd of the most gorgeous people in South Africa and we've just heard that Samsung mobile is looking for the next female and male Icone Modeles! These two lucky people will stand a chance of being the next face of Samsung Mobile!

They will be part of the 2008 above the line and below the line ad campaigns, which basically means they'll have their faces blasted on every billboard, poster and magazine cover in SA! Models will win themselves a $75k international modeling contract with Next modeling agency!

These two models will become the most sought after South African models abroad and get to don the most exclusive made-to-fit range of South African couture, which these models will showcase at SA's main Fashion Week in August 2008!  read more here »

South Africa has a budding industry of mobile magazines (mobizine), which are basically snippets of info from the print versions of certain publications like, Drum, Men's Health and Shape magazine.

This is one of the ways you can use to stay up-to-date with what's happening with your favourite show, magazine or even newspaper, and sometimes it's even more current than their other media counterparts.

I like the fact that I don't have to rely on the postman to deliver our DSTV Dish magazine because now I can not only check out what's on tonight on my phone. I'm also able to stream my favourite programmes on my phone.

How awesome is that?  read more here »

I was glad to be in such close vicinity to this year's Media Tech convention which was held from 12-14 June 2007 at the Sandton Convention Centre. It was a great experience to see the many enthusiastic people who are all either crazy or just crazy about their products and services.

It was quite a mouth watering exhbition with Apple IMC demo-ing the latest and greatest in Apple software, Final Cut Studio 2 and the like. Sony was in full force too with their cool, sheek Cocktails bar too.  read more here »
