A green-and-gold Spring With the change in season comes the most gorgeous Spring weather (in Jozi, at least); a Bok-befokte South Africa - and Bizcommunity - thanks to the 2011 Rugby World Cup happening in New Zealand; and the usual outbreak of new account wins/new appointments/new launches/new beginnings/new partnerships (and allergies, of course). So, without much more ado, Bizcommunity has partnered with Aegis Media to bring you the monthly Thought Leadership Digibates, a series of marketing/media debates which will be broadcast and streamed live, starting this Thursday, 8 September 2011, with a cracker of a panel. Then, we've also partnered with Google South Africa to give all Bizcommunity readers R400 worth of pay-per-click advertising on Google - follow our "Google AdWord Free Trial" series every Monday for the next 12 weeks as we explore the benefits of Google AdWords and take you through the steps of setting up and optimising your first campaign. We'd also like to take the opportunity to congratulate South Africa's very own Raymond Louw on being named one of this year's World Press Freedom Heroes (the other being the late US journalist Daniel Pearl) by the International Press Institute. A heartfelt thank-you, "Oom Ray", for all that you do for media freedom in South and southern Africa, and for always being available for comment. The awards will formally presented at the IPI World Congress in September. The latest Biz Takeouts podcast from the Bizcommunity.com/Chai FM Marketing & Media radio show, on how how to break into new markets using innovative strategies, is now available for your listening pleasure. We'll also be revealing our new permanent show host this week! Gaan "moer hulle"*, Bokke!

 [Melanie Minnaar] The marketing industry has failed to adapt to fundamental shifts in technology and consumer behaviour that have evolved over the past decade, calling into question an agency model that is well past its sell-by date in which the evolved focus has been on agencies specialising in niche media or brand execution activities.

Special focus on media freedom
 [Issa Sikiti da Silva: @sikitimedia] It looks as if South Africa will finally be joining the club of African countries that imprisons journalists for publishing or broadcasting classified information, even if it exposes government's massive corruption and abuse of power. This is after the Protection of Information Bill - aka Secrecy Bill - was finalised late last week - with the ruling ANC using its majority vote to bulldoze through controversial clauses.

 [Issa Sikiti da Silva: @sikitimedia] UK radio specialist Tony Hertz says wherever he goes across the globe, there seems to be issues around radio.

 [Matt Rose] HTML5 is the latest platform for web development and will make surfing the net much more interactive and media-rich (especially though mobile browsers).

 [Herman Manson: @marklives] RamsayMedia has been undergoing a strategic transformation over the last three years under the management team lead by MD Stuart Lowe. While the closure of three titles in recent years leaves the impression that the publisher is struggling, Lowe says closing the titles were a brave move to shift focus and energy to a new 360-degree multimedia strategy built around sound and profitable brands.

 [Chris Moerdyk: @chrismoerdyk] It is, of course, the eternal media question. Does media maketh the man or man maketh the media? Take Julius Malema, for example. Read more >>
 [Gill Moodie: @grubstreetSA] "[Prof Anton] Harber says Sunday Times responding to lame 'racist pic' story, due to Twitter driving the critique, shows shift in power #sacomm11," tweeted Prof Guy Berger of Rhodes University last week from a media conference. The prof is right, of course, and there is no better demonstration of this shift than in last week's media coverage of ANC Youth League president Julius Malema's supporters running amok in Joburg. Read more >>
 [Angelo Coppola: @angelo2711] I was excited when I woke up on Tuesday morning, 30 August 2011. Julius Malema was to have his hearing at Luthuli House and a small group of people had arrived near the ANC head office to start their overnight vigil. Then my day deteriorated. I was disappointed that I had to rely on the social networks to stay in touch with the action just 10km from my home. Read more >>

The 12 tracks reflect this; an apocalyptic sentiment prevails throughout; forecasting an ultimate and final destiny for the band and on a much larger, vaguer scale, the world. Read more >>
