Lets just embed that video again so it makes it easier for you to sing along.

Here is the lyrics to The New Dork – Entrepreneur state of mind

Now Im in the blogosphere, Now I’m in the twitterverse
Fans get so immersed, But I’m a nerd forever
I’m the new Zuckerberg, And since my website
I been cookin dough like a chef servin killa-bytes
Used to be the basement, Back at my mom’s place
Buildin web traffic so that we could sell an ad space
Make way for the, One man businesses
Bail outs finished with, White collar criminals
New sega genesis, Entrepreneur time
Makin big plans, To dominate the online
Yeah, I’m on YouTube, this is one man
Sharin’ google revenue, With songs on my webcam
Science is the new art, Databases day to day
Geeks spreadin’ sheet smarts, Hustle, make the data pay
I could be in Valleywag plus Geekologie
Tell from my avatar, That I’m most definitely

CHORUS
The New Dork,
Social networks – what dreams are made of, There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re the New Dork
This V.C. money is brand new, The geek is now damn cool
Let’s hear it for new dorks, new dorks, new dorks

Catch me up in Techcrunch, Right on the homepage
Hell, I’m on Gizmodo, In a photo bout a phone craze
And Im up in Mashable, weekend trip to New York
Bar pitty, 1oak, parties full of New Dorks
Now I’m pitchin business plans, From the backs of napkans
Micro-lend to Africans, Monetize Kazakastan
Catch me up on linked-in, Dog, C.E.O.
You can see where I be, With the I.P.O.
Now I’m up in skinny jeans, Now a hipster’s lurkin’
Used to be a reject, But now I’m steady jerkin’
Now my glasses mainstream, Now the girlies eyein me
Popular kids copy me, The new swag is irony
Comin’ from the small time, Girls couldn’t find me
Now I scale models, Like I climb on top of Heidi
Start big trends, with tweets that I pass on
You should follow me, cuz I’m friends with Ashton
REPEAT CHORUS

Stii software developer at Afrigator has just announced on his blog that real-time feed updates with PubSubHubbub has been implemented into Afrigator, but they still seem to have some issues with Blogger or Blogspot feeds.

Twitter is launching the new service to protect users against phishing and other deceitful attacks. By routing all links submitted to twitter, they will now detect, intercept and prevent the spread of bad links across the twitter platform.

Twitter users should not notice this service as it will be working behind the scenes protecting them from all bad links. Looks like twitter also kind of are introducing their own URL shortener for use with this service. Twitter users may see some of their links sent through via DM or email being shortened to a twt.tl link.

You can follow me on Twitter to stay up to date on all the latest tech news.

The HTC Legend is basically the follow up phone to the popular HTC Hero that won the Mobile Handset of the year award. I was very happy when I received feedback from Leaf that the HTC Legend will be available in South Africa soon along with the HTC Desire, the Google Nexus One competitor.

Here is a first look at the HTC Legend.

Awesome phone isn’t it, what do you think?

Stand as one has got a nice African vibe to it, and must say this will do a good job as the Official 2010 Fifa World Cup song. What do you think?

The Community Information Challenge is looking for innovative and fresh ideas, on how local and relevant information can be accessed and shared, with the local community.

User engagement is a term used to describe how much users interact with your articles through leaving comments. How does MyScoop calculate these top user engaged blogs? MyScoop runs through each and every registered blog every 168 hours (7 days) and check how many comments the articles has received that was written in the last 7 days. Once the comments has been calculate the number is divided by the amount of articles written and this will give you the user-engaged ratio.

As it currently stands the top 5 user-engaged blogs in South Africa are:

1. Pamorama: Marketing, life, social media
2. Nick Duncan
3. Erica Says
4. If these walls could talk v4.0
5. Harassed Mom

iGeek is currently sitting at number 11 on the list, you can view the list here.

Would just like to thank Nick again for this great new feature, sometimes its hard to believe that he is the one and only creator and developer of MyScoop.

MyScoop is now the first local blog aggregator that will aggregate local blogs in real time, no more waiting 20-30 minutes or logging in to you account and ping your blog for your article to be aggregated.

MyScoop has integrated the PubSubHubbub technology into their site and will now aggregate your articles in real-time. What does this mean you ask? Well to put it simply you can now get your articles submitted in real-time to the aggregator, and with MyScoop’s great SEO your articles will even rank higher faster.

How do you get access to this real-time aggregation you ask? Just follow these simple steps.

1. Register a account at MyScoop if you do not already have one, you can use your Twitter, Google, Facebook, Yahoo, OpenID or Blogger third party account if you do not wish to remember another password.
2. Your blog must either run from WordPress.com or must be a stand alone WordPress installation, WordPress.com users will not need to do anything further as their blog will already be integrated with PubSubHubbub.
3. If you have your own WordPress installation you will need to download a plugin to activate the real-time aggregation. Simply go to PubSubHubbub plugin page, download the plugin and install.
4. After installation simply activate the plugin and you should be ready to go. MyScoop will pick the plugin up in a few minutes or alternatively you can just ping your blog for the last time for MyScoop to pick up the changes.
5. You are now aggregated in real-time, enjoy!

Great new feature and thanks to Nick Duncan for staying up till wee hours of the morning to implement these changes.
