Deepest Sender and Amatomu.com
Posted by Bug-E on March 23rd, 2007
I just read on Tectonic about the Mail & Guardian’s latest little venture called Amatomu. It’s basically a South-African technorati. I think it’s well-timed for the market, and it will show all South-African bloggers in one place, which I think is good.
Especially with the the publicity the Geekdinners and 27-dinners are getting as of late… Who knows, maybe I’ll get more than 5 visitors a day. 
One thing I was wondering was why it was not a .co.za domain… Seeing that it is a South-African focussed site. I see they also have the amatomu.co.za domain pointing to it, but the logo specifically says .com *shrug* Who am I to talk eh? My blog lives on a .org
On a side note, I’m trying out a new blog update doodat called Deepest Sender. It’s a Firefox plugin and allows you to select text and/or a link and send it to your Blog. Similar to Wordpress’s PressIt bookmarklet, but it supports a bunch of other blog software like blogger.com and others.
So far so good, it has a fairly simple wysiwyg editor with a live preview option, and supports something called FoxyTunes, whatever that is.
Microsoft’s 70-292 and Cisco’s advanced 350-001 exams, in combination prepare the professionals for almost all of challenges they might face in an ISP or web hosting company. This has caused a growth in demand of such professionals besides encouraging more web hosting and domain registration companies to appear without having network security threats. Hosting providers like powweb have a team of professionals to take care of security concerns. This has enabled them to introduce services like banner ads and media management.
