As seen in my previous post, my new toy, is loads of fun…
This morning on my way to work, I saw how beautiful the beach looked, stopped and went happy snappy…
I must admit that I am over happy with my purchase. The picture this camera takes is absolutley awesome. I need to get more to grips with all the fancy photography settings, ISO, WB, fstops blah blah, but for now, i’m just snapping.
My first collection is up on flickr go check it out and lemme know what you think :)
A mate of mine from It-Ideas has started a free internet dating site in South Africa, called letsmeet.
While there may be plenty of these out there, this one has a very cool twist.
Imagine sitting in the traffic and see a hottie, you simply jot down the license number, go to www.letsmeet.co.za and you can leave a messge. If they are registered they simply get sent a private message, otherwise the your message is stored until they register on the site. Cool idea.
Give it a bash at www.letsmeet.co.za
Lemme know what you think
Ahh, so we back at work…ahh bummer. It’s days like this I wish, I would have taken just that LITTLE bit of extra leave, like another month…
Happy New year to all of you. Hopefully 2006 will be better than 2005.
Father Christmas(aka Makro) bought me a new toy for Christmas. I am the proud owner of a Canon 350D.
Awesome. I been eyeing this camera for a couple of months. Armed with a credit card, I approached makro with hositlity, and savaged the beast.
It has to be the best buy I have ever made. Such a brilliant camera, and an absolute breeze to use.
So in 2006, expect to see a lot more pics on the blog, and hopefully a photo blog sooon !
Finally the time has come, and I’m off on leave today. Whohoo..
Wow. What a year, a birth of a beautiful baby, and the sad loss of a loved one, so in all a rather “entertaining” year. But I have to admit, that its been a exciting year,with so many lessons learnt.
I guess living at the beach doesn’t count as going on holiday, cause you already on holiday, so I am going to relax for the next to weeks, in front of my TV, and drink loads and loads of beer.
So to everyone who reads this blog, THANK YOU. I promise I will try and blog more next year.
Have an awesome festive season, Drink lots but don’t drive. And just be merry.
Have fun,
Marc
I see its that time of the year again, where the International Weblog awards takes place.
They have a category for “Best Middle East or Africa Blog“, which only includes 1 South African blog this year. It is a step up from last year, where I think we had none. Joblog highlighted this last year.
But what suprises me more is that its a relativley unknown South African blog called “The Fishbowl“, first time I seen this blog (of which I have hundreds of South African Blogs), has cracked the nod in this category.
The Fishbowl lacks visual appeal, and the content is well boring. It has a standard blogger template, and has about 3 comments in the last 15 articles ??
I know my blog def doesn’t match up to some of the other South African blogs we have out there, but surely the likes of Cherryflava, Joblog, Chumpstyle, SerenityDawn etc etc , the list could go on and on, could have easily cracked a nod in this category.
We looking forward to the South African Blog Awards, which thanks to Cheery Cherry we should have hopefully organised again next year.
Anyways, go vote anyways for The Fishbowl at “Best Middle East or Africa Blog“, and lets get South African Bloggin onto the World map :)
