Phones / Re: Google Free SMS Adds Nigeria Networks by jaysay(m): 9:08pm On Mar 23, 2012
You can also send SMS to Visafone too via your messenger from your gmail inbox.

Only Etisalat is missing at the moment. I wonder why Etisalat refuse to get on to the list.
Computers / Re: The Best Internet Connection To Use? by jaysay(m): 6:29pm On Nov 18, 2011
@dozie, Yes, you can get a 3G signal from Etisalat with a universal modem as long as you have 3G signal at your end.

@poster of question. There's no best connection. Your closest to best is to use a universal modem and switch to the network that works well per time. For me, for now, Etisalat offers the best speed. I got up to 2.88Mbps download speed using speed test this morning.

I hope this helps. ;-)

Phones / How Do You Determine Which Mobile Phone Is The Best? by jaysay(m): 12:57pm On Aug 24, 2011
For me, it gets my job done. I am very keen about
Nokia products, although I may have been disappointed
lately.

I am currently using the Nokia E71. My most used functions
are -- email, twitter client, note taking and other social media
tools. I am a social media geek. tongue

I came into a store and saw
nokia E6 [running Anna] my jaw dropped. Hoping to get a review
unit soon. So as to analyse it and explore other awesome nokia apps.

What determines your choice of a mobile phone and what is your
most used function?
Literature / Re: Many Nigerian Writers Are Good, But We Don't Read by jaysay(m): 9:22pm On Aug 16, 2011
z-murda:

Compared to our population, how many good writers do we have?
It would shock you that we are statistically in the lower rungs.

Also, to have 'goo'd readers, there must be an educational system which produces them. Unfortunately our educational system is dead. We have English teachers who barely speak English. Then we have a huge percentage of the country that is illiterate. How would an illiterate read a book?

Then, there is the little problem of the number of people who live below the poverty line. 70%. How many of these people would even bother to buy text books, not to talk of leisurely books for reading.

Premium is not placed on literature and humanities in Nigeria. All we want to after secondary is get into the university, get a job and make money.
Even our writers sometimes don't help matters, some write just to make money and make a living because there is nothing else to do.


You are right about the educational system being bad. But, I think we can think of it this way; why should they read? What will it profit them to read?

If we can take out time in our own little space and help one person to appreciate the value of reading, we can reach critical mass eventually. It begins with me.

I will list some of the benefits from reading -

- It shapes your thinking, improving the quality of your thought
- It allows you know how things are made our how things are in some parts of the world
- It enriches your knowledge base and can empower you especially these days that our school system isn't very encouraging.

If you can read and enjoy reading, encourage one more person to read. Many of us came from this same system but are trying to rise up against all odds.

wow i think there is something wrong with the poster!

FREEDOM of expression. If something is wrong with me?

We all have issues to deal with at times, that is why we come here to share.
If I could handle it alone, I would not have shared it.

Things fell apart in April 2011. I could not live with the fact that I would get married

Phones / Is The Phone Section Just About Buying And Selling Now? by jaysay(m): 9:38am On Apr 08, 2011
I love to buy and I love to sell too, but not as much as I
love to engage in meaningful dialogues. All those seem to be missing
from Nairaland Phone section.

Am I the only one who is observing that?

what do you consider before making your choice
of smartPhone?
Phones / Re: Why Are Many People Selling Or Dumping Their Blackberry? by jaysay(m): 8:19pm On Feb 27, 2011
Data management wise, social media integration wise, messaging wise, and the candy QWERTY key pad,
you are better of with a BB.

Android is a data gobbler, it swallows data like mad. think of your need and your pocket. Before I got a BB to
try, I was always spiting bb users, its a different case now, because it meets my needs.

What is your need? ;-)
Business / Leverage On #nemmedia To Grow Your Business( F R E E Ono-on-one Coaching) by jaysay(m): 3:10pm On Jan 08, 2011
I just posted on my facebook status that I would be offering a one-on-one coaching for entrepreneurs, start-ups and companies that would want to use new media to re-position and re-imagine their brand. This is a very crucial year for businesses. The boys would be separated from the men.

Most businesses use the old system of spreading message about their business, here I will call it the traditional media (TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, and bill boards). The New Media is the new and the proactive way businesses should be done. why would you do things the way you have always done it, if it is not yielding desired result? It would be better to change strategy. In this case their is a need to move from Traditional Media to New Media. ctd on my blog,

what are your thoughts on new media?

do you think those who learn in schools are as practical as those working with it day-to-day?

Who is the masters in new and social media? your take please.

January 2011

the last response to this post was in October.
I have since then showed my love unbiased to her,
I think, she could not afford to loose me, coming from
the kind of background, a little troubled.

Now we may not be going out together, *break up* I mean.

Family issues. Her family are stunch, and mine, I can handle them,
but I can't turn my back on my family. but she's ready to do that.

I am afraid for her, if she does that, would she live the world alone.

*sobbing* is this the end?

Computers / Re: Help: My Glo Sim Is Not Connecting With My Mtn F@stlink by jaysay(m): 1:21pm On Dec 25, 2010
the glo network recognises it as NDIS,
while MTN sees it as RAS (modem)
Computers / Re: Help: My Glo Sim Is Not Connecting With My Mtn F@stlink by jaysay(m): 1:16pm On Dec 25, 2010
lynxnoon:

if your mtn modem ia a hauwei type, den sorry it wont work
works only on mtn zte models for now undecided

that was exactly what I was told. But, my Glo woks in an MTN huawei 156g modem
now. I have also helped more people achieve same success.

The mtn huawei modem has to be reset to factory setting. it was deactivated for mtn
by huawei. Using ATEX command with an earlier version of windows operating system system,
windows xp or windows vista.

the application you need there is called #Hyperterminal.

you'd insert the modem: unlocked modem, into the computer.
lunch the #Hyperterminal programme and use the factory recet
set of code and instructions.

*** you can get those codes by searching the internet,
or you could get it from me.

After resetting it to factory setting, you'd restart the modem; remove
from the computer, and put it again. you'd notice that what you'd have would be as seen below.

In this case, I did not change the firmware.

Computers / Re: Glo 3g Internet Is Useless by jaysay(m): 12:00pm On Dec 25, 2010
i'd like to agree that glo is going through
Some upgrade, cos in the last one week
And the haalf, the service has been
Pathetically arratic.

If you're having challenge with glo, i
Normally peg mine to 3G/UMTS only, tht
Way when the 3G signal goes away temporarily
It doesnt disconnect, within 2secs to 5secs
It is back. But for sometimes now
It has changed. So, am using MTN in my
Universal modem.

I use the 2G network on my phone and
Its still giving me headache.

My advice stay of glo for a while, offcourse,
Unless you use it to make call. MTN is fairer.

Sometimes also the network quality vary
From place to place. Take note.

*The bid was to start at N27k

*the highest bidder so far is N21.8

*the bid ends today by midnight.

* It will go to the highest satisfactory bidder.

You are working on a project, novel, book, proposal,
or you just need to get the job of the ground, and it is
taking you like forever to figure it out. This are stuff you
use to do without putting your thinking cap on, oh! WTH!

Now what would you generally do?
Maybe you've been there how did you
