  • TECH SMART 2OCEANSVIBE INTERVIEW

    18 May 2009 by Seth Rotherham in Blogs, Inside Seth, Press, Tech/Sci

    I had an interview the other day with the cool cats at TechSmart.co.za. I thought it went very well.

    Here’s a little tid bit:

     

    Six awards including blog of the year, best original writing and most humorous. Did this come as a surprise?

    With six nominations, I certainly was hoping to get at least one or two. But six? And the best overall? No – I simply refused to think that far. I lived with professional rugby players for a few years in my early 20’s and talking about winning before a match was taboo in our house. “Jinxing” the match and all that, is an absolute no-no!

    When did you start blogging and why?

    About seven years ago, before blogs were really blogs. I just made a website to showcase photos of parties that my friends and I had been to the previous weekend. Just for everyone to see. In the days when my buddies had internet access, but no email. Then I started commenting on the pics and writing little stories to fill the spaces. Strangers told me they enjoyed it which was weird – but appealing. They found it funny and urged me to keep writing. I enjoyed writing (and still do) so I continued!

    What inspires you to blog everyday?

    Just everything I do and see and think. Like any discussion you would have with a friend in a bar or a braai or a restaurant – exactly the same thing, except I type it for everyone else to see as well. Whatever I’m talking about, I’m writing about.

    Thanks for the good times, guys.

    And the great jokes.
