Microsoft’s answer to the iPod, was the Zune (and we all know how that went…)
So is this Microsoft’s answer to the iPhone?
Take a watch…

So the South African government claims that there isn't a skills shortage in South Africa. We all know thats a load of rubbish.

Someone goes out to prove it by doing a real study, and comes back with these results.
Huh?

Is Stats SA messing with those facts too?

Alright, thats that then.
Mostly done... I just have to import all the old posts now.

Tell us something we didn't know?
Perhaps the rest of the world is finally waking up to what has been happening in South Africa for far too long.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that hates those kids that insist on forcing their crap music on fellow commuters.

They think that everyone else on the bus/train wants to listen to whatever it is they're listening to, but playing it through their cellphone speaker.

Really kids, your taste in music sucks, I know this, everyone knows this. Stop trying to prove it.

I like the sound of that... Civil Disobedience.

Its not quite what the Jawug guys were going for, but it seems to describe it quite well.

Just a bunch of guys, building their own telecommunication network for fun. They're not hurting anyone, they're not causing any trouble, and they're not stealing from anyone.

The Jawug network has grown alot since I left South Africa, and I'm incredibly proud of what its been up to in the past year.
Now, there's a Wug.za.net, which covers the whole of South Africa, and even Namibia!

Keep it up guys!
