A shipping agent has told Newswatch the transatlantic ocean liner only left the Mother City this morning.
She will arrive in Durb's on Sunday at around 6am.
The Durban Harbour's north pier will be open to members of the public who would like to view the majestic ship. She will depart that evening.

Official Soccer World Cup Anthem

R. Kelly's spiritually inspired World Cup anthem goes down smoothly with a little help from the Soweto Gospel Choir. "I can feel the spirit of the nation/ and I can feel my wings riding the wind…that's the sign of a victory," he sings. Kelly and the choir will perform "Sign of Victory" at the June 11 opening ceremony.

New craze in South Africa

South Africa's Choo Tjoe Train

Experience a day down memory lane, visit the Outeniqua Transport Museum before you travel on South Africa’s only remaining scheduled steam train, the Outeniqua Choo Tjoe

The Choo Tjoe offers its passengers a unique, picturesque and scenic 52-kilometre journey experiencing the Garden Route with spectacular views of the Indian Ocean. The George / Mossel Bay line was officially opened by Sir Pieter Fraure on 25 September 1907 and was operated by the Cape Government Railways (CGR) by the New Cape Central railway (NCCR) until the railway line was completed as far as Oudtshoorn in 1913.
The railway initially traverses mainly agricultural land used for grazing. Two major rivers are crossed. These are the Gwaiing and Malgate rivers. After crossing the Gwaiing River the railway climbs towards the siding of Skimmelkrans. After Skimmelkrans the railway winds its way for 4 kms into the Malgate Valley. The railway crosses the Malgate River high above the river where large roundish holes can be seen in the rock of the riverbed. These holes are the result of floodwater rolling stones over and over in the depressions causing gradual, but noticeable erosion.
From Outeniqua the line begins its descendant to the sea. As the train twists around a large horseshoe bend, the hillsides fall dramatically towards the sea. The first seaside resort to come into view is Glentana.

Google Street View South Africa

Google Street View: Should South Africans be worried or is the world just paranoid?

Google Street View is coming to South Africa and it seems people are unsure if they should be terrified or excited.

In an effort to make some sense of the issue, I’ve decided to write a few words on the following :

1. What is Street View and how does Google create it?
2. What are the privacy concerns surrounding Google Street View?
3. A personal perspective on privacy.

What is Google Street View?

Google Street View is an extension of the very popular Google Maps.
It allows users to ‘go down to street level’ and see what it looks like at [...] Continue Reading…

Two years ago, Google sent out an army of hybrid electric automobiles, each one bearing nine cameras on a single pole. Armed with a GPS and three laser range scanners, this fleet of cars began an endless quest to photograph every highway and byway in the free world.

One of the best jobs in the world?

Google (GOOG) has hired two lucky young men to ride around France on dopey looking tricycles snapping up photos of historical sites that are inaccessible by car. This three-wheeler is a sight with its long pole holding nine cameras, a GPS, a computer and a generator. But the contraption tooling around the French capital needs all that gear to do its job – adding three-dimensional images to Google's Street View Maps.

The riders, wearing Google tee-shirts and white helmets, are visiting well-known sites such as the Chateau de Versailles, west of Paris, the Jardin du Luxembourg on the city's Left Bank or Les Halles, in the busy centre of the French capital.
