Sharing thoughts and ideas on business, security and photographySome panorama photosynths from Capetown : Table Mountain, Cape Point #in
Posted on December 19, 2010With my work having taken me to the fairer cape for a fair amount of time the last few months I have had the pleasure of driving around and enjoying some of the stunning sites. I have made some panorama photosynths from two of these and uploaded them to the Photosynth website.
The first is a 360′ view from the road up to Table Mountain.
The second was taken down at Cape Point, from a viewing point below the lighthouse, where we could look up at the lighthouse and down the cliffs to the sea below. Really amazing views and while the synth doesn’t come out quite perfectly it does a fair job of capturing the splendour of the views.
Some thoughts on DSTV mobile and the Drifta #in
Posted on December 19, 2010A couple of weeks ago I saw that the DSTV mobile offering was being launched, not having a compatible phone nor having a contract due for upgrade any time soon it was with a little bit of jealousy. Then in the release article was mention of a little device that could connect to a laptop or iDevice – enter the Drifta.
I was rather keen to get hold of one of these devices so the week after launch I looked in the DSTV website, found the participating dealers and went to visit a few of them. Sadly none of them had a clue as to what it was (Yup, that’s you GAME, Pick n Pay, Incredible connection etc). I phoned the DSTV customer care and they couldn’t tell me who had stock either. Eventually I discovered that Makro had them listed and in stock (very useful function on the website). So last Thursday I went and picked one up. R599 later I had one in my hands. Neat little box too.
