When you think of SEACOM you think “The company that brought broadband to South Africa.” You think corporate giant. You expect a stiff and businesslike environment where there is very little time for play. Sure they work hard on their public image, but who doesn’t? The largest Internet Cable in Africa has to be run by suits, you think, and then Aidan Baigrie greets you in reception with breakfast bowl in hand…

Right. I skipped the mid-morning session, and now we are online again. WiFi has been a bit dodge the past hour.
This session is about YouTube. Called YouTube in Business, let’s dive into the talk… continue reading…
Hey, online at the morning session for day two.
Not much new to report since the introductory session is exactly the same as was the first session yesterday. It is good for me to hear this talk again, refreshes some of the points and brings home the challenges that face Africa regarding Internet penetration.
Post lunch session.
After a quick lunchtime tweetup we are back!
Listening to a talk on the online trends…
Right, got me some power (until I get chased off by the organisers) and 3G dongle… back to the conference.
I missed a chunk of this session getting the previous post out, so here is what is left of this one…
Hey Everyone.
Trying to live blog from the gSouth Africa event here in Camps Bay. Reason it is not happening LIVE live is that power is a bit of a challenge.
Currently I am in the “Chill Out and Recharge” room, getting some content online for you to read.

Day six.
Today I will tackle one of the areas where Unity irritates me a bit: Notifying me of actionable windows/programs.
Since I have already managed to custom skin my Unity, I will go that direction and see if I can customise the notification triangles a little to make them more visible. They tend to disappear a little when the Unity Launcher has a pattern to it, like is the case with my snakeskin launcher.
Also some other thoughts as the day continues…
(The introduction to this series can be found HERE. Have a read.)

Let’s see how it did?

This day is starting early. We are going to a family get together in a few hours (why is the end of the year always to crazy!?) and I want to get something readable for you guys who are following this series before I am Internetless for a few hours.
I have something interesting for you folks – a custom unity launcher…
