Finally someone has taken the bold step to start a Crowdfunding Angel Network in South Africa.

This sure is a HUGE step in the right direction for South Africa and an even bigger leap for Africakind. I happily pledged two units to show my support. A good Angel Funding network has been missing from South Africa for a long, long time. I look forward to the day when Africa is leading the world with technolgy startups, that kick serious ass. Angel funding has for a long time been lacking in South Africa and this is surely the best news since Thabo fell off the bus

Lets hope that investors in this new project get to vote on which projects to support.

The next few weeks are going to be interesting. I won’t take my eye’s off this project. Lets see what happens. hehe can only be good things to come…

It is my great pleasure to introduce the Worlds first mobi guide to Snakes of South Africa.  This educational guide will soon be available freely on the Nokia Ovi store.  The guide has been tested and works on all Nokia Symbian S60 5th edition handsets .  (Including Nokia N97, N97 mini, 5800, 5530 and X6 handsets.)

Due to time limitations the app/Mbook only includes a handful of the many snakes found throughout South Africa.  I started with the most dangerous and common snakes and once I have more time and have sourced more development funding I will update the app to include all the snakes found in our country, I will also add support for more handsets and future plans include the addition of multi language support.

The guide has been entered into the Nokia Calling All Innovators Developer Challenge and I look forward to reading what everyone think of this unique South African App.

If like me you love playing with new things, drop me a line via Twitter or email ( homecrafters AT Gmail DOT com) and I will happily send you the app.
