I’m proud to announce that SynthaSite has won the Industry Standard 100 Awards in our category – community & social! Thanks to everyone for voting!

We were up against a very tough line of competitors, including Meebo & Delicious (owned by Yahoo), and it’s a real testimony to the growth in the popularity of our service.

SynthaSite now boasts well over 1m unique visitors per month, and still on a very nice upward trend! We also launched Blogging, Shopping Carts & Domain registration earlier this month!

I must apologize to my readers for not posting much over the past few weeks, but there are some very interesting things happening over at SynthaSite which has dominated my free time (I think I’m averaging 4-5 hours per night sleep!). I’m going to be picking up the pace, real soon!

San Francisco is really fantastic, and I’m enjoying every minute here, but I also do miss home!

Thanks again to everyone for voting!

I’m at BarCamp Africa today – follow me for some live coverage on my Twitter feed!

I was thrilled to hear that I’m nominated for the ITWeb Personality of the Year award in South Africa. The winner is selected based upon the number of votes on the ITWeb site – so I would really appreciate a few seconds of your time to vote. I’m up against a selection of industry heavyweights – so wish me luck!
