That is half price of what they usually cost, and it comes with a one-year warranty. I’m not sure if you can get a better deal than this and I cannot emphasise enough how good TomTom is. I use TomTom every time I go to Johannesburg and it becomes necessary more than you would think […]
Just look at the photo of this guy here. See how relaxed he is? He’s at home, churning out apps for businesses and raking in the cash. Those are double-glaze windows in the background – those don’t come cheap. Our boy needs those so he doesn’t get interrupted while he is ‘conceptualising.’ Which is what […]
Capetonians, when last did you visit Wembley Square? If it was this weekend, you may have noticed that BOS Ice Tea has launched the world’s first Twitter-activated sampling machine there. BEV, the whirling, bleeping, buzzing BOS Ice Tea-vending robot, made her debut appearance at the 2012 Design Indaba, where she spent her time refreshing and […]

If you want to find out what the vibe is, tweet us and tell us what you think the mystery is. Use the #beekeeper hashtag. The best insight gets […]
I’m pretty tired of teaching all my mates the basics of Photoshop. Now that everyone has woken up and realised how much money they can save doing little photographic tweaks themselves (rather than hiring a designer whose skills far outweigh your little jobs), a course like this is invaluable. I strongly urge you to do […]

Did you catch that Jack Daniel’s “beekeeper” vibe on Tuesday? Some people were dropping claims of liqueurs on twitter, but we’re not convinced, to be completely honest. Jack Daniel’s hasn’t made anything but straight up whiskey for 137 years. We’re still not entirely sure what’s going on, but we did just get another clue mailed to us […]
2oceansvibe Radio recently launched our Melrose Arch Studio to much fanfare in Johannesburg. The launch of the studio was our way of answering the desperate cries of our many thousands of Johannesburg listeners who, since being liberated from Morkels ads, “hump days” and “no repeat workday” radio were craving a stronger taste of the Vibe. […]
A 2oceansvibe reader has alerted us to an incredible local artist’s portrait of soccer star Wayne Rooney. Hidden in the “antiques/collectibles” section of Gumtree.co.za is an original acrylic painting of the English striker, on sale for R5 000. It may well turn out to be the must have work for local collectors this year.
Friends, now, I’m sure you all know by now that Friday Done Jack’s Way is back, and that you can enter HERE to be part of the action, but what the heck is going on here? Jack Daniel’s HQ just mailed us this video, with no other information, and we’re not at all sure what it […]

You will have noticed that we haven’t given you one of these Groupon deals for a while. That’s because we only choose the products that we think will suit you. And this, my friends, will suit you. Especially if you (or a friend?) spends time in or near the water. Heck I might even get […]
The Muse and I were in the Midlands this weekend for a wedding, and I can tell you now that it was crispy. I made the error of checking the weather forecast for Durban, instead of the Midlands. Needless to say the boardshorts I packed didn’t come to much use. Check out these rad pics […]
Did you just get a little shiver up your spine? I did. I really did. Do you remember that amazing time that we shared together last year? I remember it, so fondly. I really do. We were building something, something good, something great – a movement. A movement based on the premise that no one […]
“Dirty” used to be a name prefix that any man could be proud of. Dirty Harry, for example, was a tough SOB. But times, they’re a changin’. And now that women are allowed to look at men the same way men have been looking at women for eons past, our jig is up. We’re being […]
A low-cost Singaporean airline has begun offering passengers iPads as an alternative to traditional in-flight entertainment. The bold move has allowed the airline to slash costs while improving passengers’ experience while on board.
Pussy, the only 100% natural energy drink that boasts ingredients like milk thistle, Siberian ginseng and schizandra, has been enjoying some attention amongst our haughtier brethren on Mud Island of late.

Most brands of shades have a folding range these days. In fact, I don’t know when last I bought a pair of shades that didn’t fold, to tell you the truth. It’s just a better life – especially here on the Radlantic Seaboard where one often arrives at early evening events with the sun still […]
Fancy seeing some creative design and innovation with a PUMA twist to it? Then you should go and have a wonder around the new PUMA Canal Walk store that’s just re-opened. After undergoing a remodel in line with PUMA International’s new Retail 2.0 store design, the new store is absolutely mind-blowing. After launching in early […]
Maybe it’s time to take yourself seriously. Maybe you have realised that your iPhone is taking better pictures than your SLR camera. Or maybe it is taking GOOD ENOUGH pictures and your SLR camera is overkill – not necessary for today’s online world. I mean, how many billboards do you expect to print from your […]
Do you have an iPad? Do you have a car? Do you have headrests in your car? Do you want your car to have screens in the back of the headrests like those hard-core limousines? If you answered yes to all those questions, then you should seriously consider getting these awesome easy-install brackets for the back […]
Yesterday, 2oceansvibe enlisted the brave men of Butlers in a diplomatic and humanitarian mission: the delivery of hot pizza to the stricken crew and salvage officers of the Eihatsu Maru trawler, currently beached on Clifton 1st. The captain’s dog got a bone. In case you haven’t caught the video and pictures of the successful mission […]
Various officials are currently meeting with the South African Maritime Safety Authority (SAMSA) to establish a salvage operation for the stranded trawler on Clifton’s First Beach. A source familiar with the maritime industry believes it’s quite unlikely that the vessel wouldn’t have known what it was doing, and that fog would not have played a role in the grounding.

I’ve wanted Bluetooth headphones ever since Rob Stokes raved about his pair, during our lunch at the Mount Nelson. He uses them to ‘get in the zone,’ whilst handling emails and planning his next barefoot run – whatever that is. I did some shopping around and fear that the ones on offer were a bit […]
