Whale watching

Expedition 2006 - Whale watching

Every year in September whales gather just off the beach at Hermanus. The area is well-known as the best place for whale watching. It is only recently that a few skippers have been given a special license to conduct whale watching tours with their boats.

The JBL Team was on the boat in the small village of Gansbaai at the early hour of 7a.m. and it only took 15 minutes before the first whale were spotted. Most of the whales were Southern right whales, which can be up to 18 m long. The creatures are quite inquisitive and closely observe the visitors. In the past, whale catchers had an easy target.

It was simply the “right” whale to hunt. A whale trip lasts about one hour and offers plenty of opportunities to observe whales.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.

JBL GmbH & Co. KG provides this service free of charge, and it is easy to activate or deactivate.
