Mail & Guardian Blogspot

Hello, good morning and welcome to Cybersurf – a weekly look at what’s happing on the Internet - I am Steven Lang.

Perhaps the most happening thing on the internet these days is blogging – we have chatted about blogging several time on Cybersurf, but still South Africans seem a bit shy to take the plunge.

So I have invited Matthew Buckland, the publisher of the Mail and Guardian online to talk to us about this new medium – and by the way if you would like to set up your own blog you should go to http://blogspot.mg.co.za/.

So Matt, why have South Africans been so slow to take up blogging?

INSERT

IN: I think South Africans will be . . . .

OUT: . . . . if I break those Copyright laws. dur: 2’47”

Matthew Buckland, the publisher of the Mail and Guardian online – and since you can now set up your own blog on the Mail and Guardian website – you know know why he is so nervous about copyright laws. Click along to http://blogspot.mg.co.za/

And if you would like to read the script to this program, you will find it at cybersurf.blogspot.com

That’s it for today - Thanks for listening and remember to keeeeeep on surfing.

Hi Steven

Great blog, Steven. Isn't it uncanny that your programme looks at trends in cyberspace and we covered exactly these topics in SAASTA's science reporting workshop? Down to the winetasting example of podcasting. Cyberspace is so big you would expect not to be able to hear anyone scream, yet there is a buzz about the same things seemingly globally.
