Rex slowy claws his way to the top

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

Yesterday saw the launch of yet another great star in the local zoopysphere. In just 1 day “Rex” took home more than 500 page views, not bad for a talking lion.

Most of you have probably already seen Rex the freaky lion, his creation comes shortly after the announcement that Zoopy and Vodacom have partnered. So the question arises is Rex a Zoopy/Vodacom PR stunt or is he just another creature clawing his way to the top?

Anyway no matter who is behind Rex, I must say it’s a great idea and is sure to keep the blogoshere on their toes for the next few days, weeks or however long it stays interesting.

Rex seems to be on the prowl and the question is, is he dangerous? Well Rex, are you?

I must say some of your comments sound really freaky dude especially to our female friends, just remember, we are watching you too ;-)

So anyway it looks like Rex prowls mainly on people in the local blogosphere and he has already pounced on some of the best including Catherine Lückhoff, Rich, Mike Stopforth, Nic Haralambous, Matthew Buckland, Charl VN, Glen Verran and Simone Biz. The question is who will he pounce on next?

Rex is a great new addition to the sphere and I hope to see much more of you in the future. Welcome Rex!!
