The Mail & Guardian have just opened the alpha testing of Amatomu which seems to be a South African equivalent of Technorati. Vincent Maher seems to be the developer behind this and he covers the launch in detail on his personal blog.
At present there appears to be just over 100 blogs listed (with this blog being the 111th) which will somehow explain why I am currently listed as the 74th most popular blog in South Africa and my wives blog, Better Beginnings, is 99th.
The concept looks good and we’ll be keeping an eye on it.
