    It has already been announced that I am leaving Zoopy at the end of May.

    I didn’t really have anything solidified when I resigned from Zoopy so it is with great pleasure and pride that I can now say that I am moving to Vodacom as the Product Manager in the Social Networking Porfolio.

    My time at Zoopy was well spent, I learned alot regarding myself, what I want to do and what I am good at. I also figured out where I think the market is heading, what the industry is doing and where I should be positioning myself.

    Zoopy is doing fantastic things right now and are one of the online companies to watch this year.

    I am going to be working very closely with Vincent Maher, who is going to be my new boss. I’ve worked with Vincent before and feel that I can only learn more and get better at what I do working at Vodacom for Vince.

    If you haven’t realised it yet, mobile is not the next big thing, it’s the big thing.

    Hi and welcome to my blog! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting and do come back.

    5FM has just launched a new show hosted by Poppy on Saturdays. It’s called the KFC Global Express and they have just started to get involved with the online market.

    Zoopy is the very first website to feature on the show with Poppy.

    What we need from you is to head on over to Zoopy, register and upload content tagging it with “5fm”. It will then be pulled through to the Zoopy 5fm page where you’ll be able to see the uploads and share them around.

    So head over to Zoopy now, listen to 5FM via streaming media and get registered and uploading!

    Last night, instead of joining the thousand or so people partying at the iPhone 3G launch, I was slaving away at my laptop for almost 5 hours.

    This is not to say that I didn’t have a blast, the VIP section was a treat as they always are.

    The event was one that was intended to be a tester for the Zoopy JHB crew. It was our first major live event that we covered.

    Terri Hayward and Klaus Bauer (the Zoopy crew) did a sterling job if I do say so myself. They proved that Zoopy can get the interviews, be on top of events and provide top class coverage as it happens, when it happens - to quote a great radio station.

    Some of highlights included speaking to Shameel Joosub, the MD of Vodacom, DJ Fresh from 5FM, the very first official Vodacom sold iPhone owner and Dot Field the Chief Communications Officer at Vodacom. We were taking photographs, doing interviews and uploading for almost the entire evening and it showed.

    Zoopy recorded some great stats yesterday and a great achievement for us was having our content shown on CNBC Africa over lunch and in a late afternoon show.

    So here’s to many more events being covered, many more shows being seen and many more interviews being done.

    If you have an event coming up that you think could do with some almost live coverage, drop me a mail: nic at zoopy dot com.
