The Thought Leader concept is expanding over the next few months and the first incarnation is Tech Leader. Tech Leader is an edited group blog aimed at thinkers in the South African technology industry. It will have the same editorial values as Thought Leader and offer insightful analysis on issues ranging from consumer technology to e-governance, open-source and industry best-practices.

The goal of the site is to aggregate quality comment about technology and to create a hub for ideas and critique that will become a valuable resource. Because it is be a communal platform, we expect that the level of discussion will make it an invaluable knowledge resource for readers trying to make sense of the disruptive chaos that technologists have to deal with every day.

The site already has more than thirty contributors and will be launched officially early next week. If you are, or know of, someone who would like to contribute, please send an email to vincent at mg.co.za
