This week MyBroadband became the first Internet forum in South Africa to pass 10 million posts, making it one of the largest online communities the country has ever seen.<\/p>\n

MyBroadband was started in July 2003, initially known as MyADSL, with the aim of creating\u00a0an online community that worked together to improve broadband in South Africa.<\/p>\n

Over the next 13 years the website changed significantly, and is now South Africa\u2019s largest IT news website and online community – attracting over 1.5 million unique SA readers per month.<\/p>\n

To celebrate the 10 million post milestone, MyBroadband held forum get-togethers in Gauteng, Cape Town, Durban, and Port Elizabeth on 16 April.<\/p>\n

We also launched a MyBroadband 10 Million Post competition, where we are giving away R10,000 cash and other cool prizes [<\/strong>You can enter the competition here<\/strong><\/a>]<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A big thanks to all our great members for sharing their knowledge so freely, and who are always ready to help with a question or poke fun at a n00b.<\/p>\n
