Uniquely South African Movember Competition

Right now, all around the globe, people are growing great big bushy Mo’s for the legendary month of Movember. Not only does this give men a legitimate excuse to look like Magnum PI, but also a chance to support some great charities as well.

RSAWEB has decided to join the Movember movement, by giving away 12 uniquely South African Movember tees, featuring SA’s 9 official mo’s:

How to win one of these uniquely SA Movember Tees:

To enter the competition, simply tell us what your favorite Home Grown Mo (as featured above) is by leaving a message on our Facebook Fan Wall (you must ‘like’ the fan page in order to leave a comment) or tweeting us using the #movember tag. You can also enter by tweeting us a pic of your very own Home Grown Mo or simply posting the pic to our Facebook Fan wall (if you ‘like’ our FB Fan Page, you should be able to post a pic with a comment on our wall).

On Friday the 26th of Movember, we’ll announce the winners from amongst the entrants to receive one of these fantastically manly Home Grown Movember tees. It’s that easy.

Announcement: New RSAWEB Data Centre purchased

We are exceedingly proud to announce the acquisition of a shiny new Data Centre, purchased from a leading financial services provider. The new facility finds it’s home in close proximity to our Cape Town head office in located in Gardens.

The acquisition comes as a result of a increased demand for Cloud services. It’s clear to us that South African businesses are waking up to the advantages of Cloud hosting as opposed to traditional hosting models like in-sourced Data Centres and dedicated servers. We also believe that the prolific emergence of innovative technology companies and supporting community-driven bodies such as Silicon Cape are also factors spurring the growth of Cloud services in the mother city.

Why we peer openly with other ISPs

Peering

Following recent aggressive peering moves by local ISPs (namely Mweb), peering has once again come to the fore as an issue the ISP industry needs to grapple with.

Firstly, here are the facts concerning RSAWEB customers:

1. We peer openly

We peer openly (settlement free) with all other ISPs, including Mweb. This means that Mweb customers accessing RSAWEB hosted content will not be affected at all by recent events. All traffic between Mweb and RSAWEB is routed locally, and openly.

2. We have our own network and Data Centres

This means we are not reliant on any one single ISP network to route traffic. We are free to route local traffic in a way that ensures the best customer experience.

The end result is a higher quality of service for customers driving traffic between us and Mweb.

The following sequence of photos shows a close encounter between an unsuspecting motorcyclist (ironically wearing a ‘Think Bike’ bib) as he is overtaken by a pack of high-speed cyclists riding in the West Coast Express race. In frame is Team RSAWEB rider Rob Quinn as he leads the pack sprint.
