Ever wondered how Dina's Mindworx?

NEWSWATCH: MyBroadband, quoting the Sunday Times, reports how Communications Minister Dina Pule allegedly bypassed Treasury rules to appoint an employment firm, Mindworx, to handle key appointments to various parastatals, such as the SABC. MyBroadband also reports how the internet's amateur sleuths got involved in hunting the Boston bombers. Madiba has taken over Times Square reports BD Live, which also reports that Cell C is looking for a father figure, and you'd better ensure your PC is protected, reports Digital Trends.

MyBroadband: How Dina Pule's boyfriend's cronies got jobs: report... As the saying goes, it's not what you know, it's who you know, and if you're the minister's boyfriend...
MyBroadband: Online detectives and the Boston bombers... What we saw were very professional police officers and SWAT teams in action following the Boston Marathon bombing. What we didn't see, however, was how the armchair detectives got involved. In the process the online amateur detectives (probably all without even a minute of training in the field, mind you, and probably often with their own preconceived theories - and facts weren't going to get in the way), decided who might be guilty, who looked suspicious and in short showed what damage a bunch of untrained Sherlock Holmes could do.

BD Live: Words of Nelson Mandela take over Times Square's billboards... On a much happier note, Madiba's words have taken over New York's Times Square, by means of electronic billboards.
BD Live: Cell C seeks Big Daddy... So who's your Daddy? Could it be Telkom? Only time, or perhaps Cell C CEO Alan Knott-Craig, will tell.
Digital Trends: Microsoft: Almost 25 percent of computers are still unprotected from viruses and malware... If you reckon you can do without antivirus and malware protection on your PC, you are nuts.
At the end of the day, the cost (in any event some protection software is free) is well worth it when you consider the alternative is to be kicked in the... you know where (see previous sentence)... by a Trojan horse.
