Recently I was trying out Bing (The new Search site by MS) - to compare with Google. In order to test it out, I typed Nairaland (out of nothing to really 'Bing': http://www.bing.com/search?q=nairaland&go=&form=QBLH&qs=n. One of the things that came out is nairaland.+net. I guess the two do not really have anything together. I quickly scanned thru. I guess it was a immitation. To comfirm further, I typed my username and password. Of course, it said it was wrong. I guess this has to do with the popularity that nairaland.com possess.

The only thing I found annoying is the too similarity between the two byline. For .net it is:
Welcome to nairaland.+net for Nigerians and Friends of Nigeria
It is too similar.

i think a disgruntled ex nairalander decided to go solo and create its own forum, but it diddnt quite meet up to expectation. the imitation was just too much been there myself, must have been about 2 or 3 years ago. . . and it was so dry and empty. most of the topics were started by and got zero replies (kindda pathetic). dont know about now though, maybe the membership has picked up what i know is that it can and will never be like nairaland.com. .  . the no.1 Nigerian forum.
