The will enable me to update most of my sites from wherever I am.

This might just come in very handy next week when we’re at the beach.

He is in grade R (pre-school) and they just started learning how to play rugby this year. Below is a video clip of his team against the grade 1 team.

P.S. This was a great opportunity to test my new Canon HV40 camera – although it’s hard to see the actual quality on a website.

Home – Last.fm

Now, $3 per month is not a lot of money, but to pay more to listen to internet radio that one does for a TV license is a bit rediculous. Especially if you only listen to last.fm about once or twice per month… I really enjoyed the service, but will not be paying yet another monthly fee for something like this.

I also found one alternative, although it has a weird interface, that seems to be able to play music according to your personal preferences. It’s called Grooveshark.

Grooveshark

Anyways, if you have any other suggestions which are available in South Africa please let me know. That means no Pandora / Spotify (which looks like an excellent service once available locally).
