Those of you who have an iPod or iPhone and have delved into iTunes, would have realised quite promptly that the SA iTunes Store is nothing short of dismal. That said, you are unable to buy music you actually want to listen to, let alone the super-cool apps for your iPhone. The iTunes account […]
There are conflicting weather reports out there, including the one right here on 2oceansvibe. Believe what you want – personally, I take whatever shows the highest temperatures. That’s just how I roll – extremeness at all times. I found this on my iPhone using a stunning piece of software called WeatherPro. 27 degrees on […]

I went for a little walk along Camps Bay beach last Sunday, when the mist was just beginning to get up to it’s tricks. We took in the reverse view from the rocks at the end. I liked what I saw and noticed that the Atlantic Ocean was playing another classic game of “lake-lake.” I’ve […]
I am still a bit shell-shocked after my harrowing visit to the Waterfront this morning. I went to get some passport photographs and decided to pop into the Waterfront iStore shop who (I was under the impression) sell most Apple Mac products. I was looking for an iPod shuffle, as my normal iPod is too […]
It started yesterday when Martin L from Diletto emailed me mentioning something about 2oceansvibe being down. I forwarded the email to Chris at iMod (my tech/seo guru and fellow SA Blog Award winner) and between us we couldn’t find anything wrong. “Thanks, Martin” I replied – but everything looks fine now.

I received word from The Adventurer that Steve Jobs is launching the new generation iPods today. This will include a new feature on iTunes called “Genius.” Surprisingly, this has got nothing to do with DJ Fresh whatsoever.
