Jarus:

And that's the only thing you saw in my post?

Well, fyi, 9-5 is generally used to describe salaried, office jobs. Not the time that matters.

If you see me use 8-5 (which is normal Nigerian working hours), then I've only localized the generic name.

everybody seems to be advetising his or her blog here ,

FunmyKemmy: I started my own blog,because I believed if Linda can do it, then why can't I? From my own blogging experience,entertainment & sex stories attract most traffic. Most people just open a blog for the sake of being called bloggers.Linda inspires me, & [size=14pt]I know I'll be her male version soon.[/size]I copy & paste-we all do,but I only copy when there's a VERY long story & LESS time. Feel free to check my blog at http://olakunleologunro..com Corrections are welcome. THANKS.

We share the same thing in common. I love the fun in blogging.

Lols! Wasted my megs visiting your Blog. Too bad, you don't even have comments flowing. Its very hard to get comments, and If you get one, then your article must be compelling. You still one of the copy and paste blogger. Anyway, too bad you're proud about it. I feel you could do better standing out with the 200K you earn. Make a diff.... 2Cent mi.

misterh: Nice thread. I've heard lots of people complain because of lack of passion. While it's true that there is nothing wrong in blogging for pay, it's stupid going to a lindaikeji or a bellanaija to copy and paste to your blog and expect money to roll in. Most of the blogs in Nigeria are entertainment related. This is because it is the most readily available niche. People don't want to go into serious niche like education, health, arts et al. When i heard of blogging in 2009, what came to my mind was just pouring out my mind. Money wasn't my motivation.
Jarus, congrats on the rating your blog just received. Surely going places.

collynzo2: I've seen all sort of things being posted here as examples of blogs,(notjustok.com etc.)so what is actually a website as we know it?

texaco1:
i love this quotation,i will start applying it .
either u beat them or get them beaten ,the bottom line they must be beaten

Afam4eva: Have you noticed that huge increase of Nigerian owned blogs? Go to the celebrity and entertainment section and you will be slapped by the number of topics on mostly celebrities with sources to individual blogs. This trend would have called for celebrities if these bloggers were reporting news the way they see it, but most of these blogs are copycats who just go to Linda Ikeji or any other popular blog and lift their content and paste on their websites. Go to all these blogs and you will notice that it's all one and the same content.

This brings me to the real meaning of "Blogging" cos it seems a lot of people have derailed in this respect. Blogs are a way through which an individual can air their mind mind. Initially, it was very similar to what a diary does, it's just that unnlike diaries which are personal and private, Blogs are not. Now that blogs have become more va va voom and commercial, one would expect that these bloggers will act as journalist and fish for their stories, but no way. They just keep copying other people's content verbatim. That's why most blogs in Nigeria today are entertainment blogs.

What stops a photographer from starting a blog about photography and taking pictures of different Nigerian scenaries, cities, towns cities and uploading so that NIgerians can appreciate the look and feel of the Nigeria that they have not been opportuned to see.

What is wrong with a political analysts having a blog where they will air their opinion on political events, very similar to what Jarus is doing currently.

Why can't students who are proficient in mathematics start a blog where they can solve difficult maths question and also get dies from other mathematicians.

This is what blogs are supposed to be and not all these recycled "Tonto Dike slaps Jim Iyke in broad daylight", Genevieve wears red dress to Chidi's birthday", "Tiwa Savage says she loves her fiancee".

What's your opinion in what blogs have become?

CFCfan:

Seun has to do something to make Nairaland more visible. NL has the potential to rival HuffingtonPost.

samkoro:

Unlike Linda Ikeji and Bellnaija ,Nairaland is a brand that has nutured rancour and promoted very bitter ethnic/religious friction all in the bid to drive traffic.I'd never seen a forum that provoked ethnic so much ethnic rife-which is not my nature, until I joined nairaland in 2006. This is a forum that started with critism of housa,minorities,christians and Igbos except moslems and Yorubas.Once you react equaly,ur post is either deleted or ur are banned.

The annoying thing is not mainly about what users post;cos they may not mean that in real life,but about how the owner remain partial about the topics they are quick to allow.Political and social topics that are always laced with ethnic bigotery, denigrating one ethnic group or another.It is desperation,very unethical.

That is why you cannot see the young man seun in an ethnically diversified public function.He cannot reckon with his own brand cos of fear of public embarrassment.Other bloggers socialise freely with clear conscence.

Serious companies look out for these things cos they do not want their brand to be dented or caught up in a forum of political and ethnic rancour.

Thats why a Price Water Cooper cannot associate with nairaland no matter the traffic.I personaly decided not to associate with any services or item advertised on nairaland.
