Site Review: Naija Lingo (pidgin English Dictionary)
« on: July 12, 2007, 07:50 AM »

Hello, I would like everyone to take a look at http://naijalingo.com It is a Open Nigerian Pidgin English Dictioanry (Also Includes Slangs). I would like anyone and everyone ( if possible) to give me their thoughts on the site. Please I am looking for constructive feedback. Yes I already know that there are some sources where you can get Pidgin English but this is done very differently. I will appreciate any form of feedback as to how to make the site better and more user friendly to people. While your at feel free to add words to the dictionary so we can all together build a huge pidgin english dictionary.

You probably want to handle pagination better - right now, it just says "1 2" for example.  It wasn't obvious to me whether those were just random numbers or what I should click to get to the next page.  Secondly, if I am on page one, why is "1" hyperlinked?  Finally, it would be nice to have a feature like "there are 20 words.  page 1 of 5.  Words per page: 20", or words to this effect.  In other words, I was afraid I would be scrolling ad infinitum for each alphabet.

Other than that, great effort.  The site is very clean and very "Web 2.0"-y.

Kudos!
