21Jul Remembering ZIMELPA

When I was with Venekera Works, we ran an online picture gallery which we called ZIMELPA, short for “The Zimbabwe Entertainment and Leisure Photo Album”. ZIMELPA was part of itsbho.com and became quite popular in a very short time. There is something about telling a story with pictures that resonates with most people. Unfortunately ZIMELPA [...]

14Jul The Jam Shop Draws Closer

There have been many starts and stops. Issues with the contract, with the shop, with the logistics, with our mental preparedness and so many other nitty gritty witties- but I do believe we are close to take off. The Jam Shop is coming…

23Jun Easy search for law.co.zw

I just added a big search feature on the law.co.zw home page- it hits you as soon as the page opens. With over 1,500 downloads, over 200 Zimbabwean law firms listed and MANY more updates to come I felt it was important to make it all as easy to find as possible.

18Jun Banner Ad Campaign for Law.co.zw Launched

Yesterday, I did the banners for the law.co.zw ad campaign and put them up on The Zimbo Jam.
The idea behind this campaign is to present the law with a more human face, in a way that the ordinary person can relate to and to incorporate a bit of humour into the ads. We’ll see just [...]

16Jun Law.co.zw Press Release Sent Out

Over the weekend I finished the new home page for law.co.zw and as planned did a press release which I put out on the PR Log website. I also sent it out by email to various NGOs and newspapers and, of course, put it up on Zimbablog as well.
I happened to take a look at [...]

16Jun Introducing the new Zimbabwearts.org

On Saturday I uploaded the new version of ZimbabweArts.org. The theme is pretty much the same as the one done by Osato Dixon for the previous site. The difference is all in the engine running the site now.
The new site runs on Joomla- compared to the flat html pages of the previous one. I did [...]

15Jun And Zedd Didn’t Go Out

If you receive the weekly Zimbo Jam, Zimbablog and Anoziva newsletter- Zedd, you will have noticed that last week’s issue didn’t go out. My apologies. Last week was just so hectic. I was doing some technical upgrades to the Zimbo Jam and working on our new YouTube Channel. I was also doing version and template [...]

04Jun Hope Masike has a Website

Realising, as all serious artists should, that an online presence is absolutely crucial, Hope Masike approached me some time ago saying she was interested in having a simple one page site. It’s now up.
I recommend this for all artists. Be it a myspace page, a Facebook page, blogger account, etc- have something online that says [...]
