History was made this weekend with the first ever couple to get married on mxit. The marriage between Badboyzn and MrsBadboyzn formerly known as Sexygirlzn took place at Durban12. It was a small affair, only seven per room, with some quite famous handles invited for the wedding. Amongst the guests where:

BadBoy4lifezn
Badgirl-zn
|34D|30Y-zn
and R()T!(H!C|{

The affair was not your usual glamorous wedding, simply incorporating their love for mxit and each other. The bride as is seen with most Indian weddings logged on half an hour later than planned after which the ceremony started. Drama ensued when badboyzn left the room without a “brb” during the all important “I do”. Rumours ran wild that the groom had second thoughts and could not go through with the ceremony, some saying the lack of picture swopping being the main reason. Luckily for Sexygirlzn, Badboyzn was not about to leave his allegedly beautiful bride at the alter, logging back just minutes later claiming he DC’ed.

Shortly after the ceremony the throwing of the (f) commenced with R()T!(H!C|{ catching the bouquet, much to the chagrin of |34D|30Y-zn who just invited her to go private.

As the newly married couple prepared to leave for their honeymoon Almost News was allowed a few questions. On there first meeting, it was agreed that it was love at first sentence, “He had me at asl, it was da way he sed it dat really stood out from the rest, n wen he askd me to go pvt after dat, I just knew he was da 1”. When questioned on destination, they replied in unison “JHB 23”. MrsBadboyzn then added “ We herd frm a lot of our fwends dat JHB 23 has lot of fwendwy ppl n we both hope to make lot of nu contacts.”

Looks like MXit is opening up shop in Mauritius?

Reasons? Maybe it’s the closest place that has reasonably priced bandwidth.

Would I go to mauritius? Yes, when it’s not cyclone season

MXit is growing and growing so this has brought on a change.

We will now have MXit SA (South Africa) and MXit International.
So no need to worry, our roots are firmly planeted in the ground and MXit SA is not going anywhere except up!

Without giving too much away, Mauritius would be where the head offices would be located for MXit International and MXit SA will remain in Stellenbosch.

No figures were mentioned.

What effect will this have on the MXit company?

It should allow them to improve and grow and have access to more resources.

The Naspers network is huge.

Naspers also has a large stake in the massively popular instant messenger in Asia, QQ by Tecent.

Moneyweb.co.za – Herman Heunis, MXit Founder and CEO
This is a quote from a radio interview transcript which moneyweb.co.za makes available for free. It was about the recent purchase by Naspers.

MONEYWEB: Tell us about the synergies – what role will Naspers be playing?

HERMAN HEUNIS: Well, obviously they’re a major media group with quite a global footprint, and obviously we hope to get some assistance there to roll it out internationally. In South Africa we hope to get some of their content onto MXit and make it more attractive to our users.
