Hi Guys, Prezence are definately not guilty (including any of our relatives ;) ..and thanks for your kind words. The only Telkom related site we produce is the http://www.entertainmentafrica.com deployment (DObroadband takes an xml content feed from that only. We would love to get our hands on that and do it properly though).
BTW: if any of you guys fancy coming to join the amazingly talented boys and girls at Prezence.. just shout, we are employing at an amazing rate for Flash, Silverlight, Web2CSS, PHP and Mobile. Maybe we can then sort out Telkom’s stuff ;)
Best regards Tim

I agree, Presence is an amazing agency, I’ve known 2 or 3 people who’ve worked their and they were all quality driven, so ye, probably a family member of someone high up in the ranks..

@ Jacques Marneweck : Presence’s work is way more professional dude… this looks like it was done by an a brother of the CEO’s son in swish.

One would imagine that they have a decent budget as well as a person, if not a team, to handle such an operation. I’m a single man team, with very little budget and an incredibly high work load. The comparison is pointless.

I long for the day that you might throw a decent comment my way Jonathan, perhaps this extends further than just random online banter. I’m correct, aren’t I :)

Of course, your own site fails validation with 408 errors:

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fimod.co.za%2F

So maybe take the log out of your own eye first, Dalai Llama?

(Also, on benchmarks, your site takes about ten times longer to load than just about any other site I’ve tried.)

Well, even google and microsoft fail to validate with 59 and 177 errors respectively. If the “so-called” pioneers in all that is good and evil in this world can’t even manage it, where does that leave everyone else?

Incidentally, the pirate bay validates.
