i wish i could throw a party inviting all nairaland members.

emmm, have you been listening to the radio again?

Hello fellow nairalanders. It's always disheartening to see what people often go thru just to secure a job. Most of us actually just luv the idea of being employed without really looking at the effective use of our time & life. I'd rather more people actually created their own opportunities cos opportunities actually abound bountifully out there waiting for people to discover them.
Below are stories of some peeps (though not in naija):

I Bec Creative

What It Does: Web development and graphic design
Founder: Becky Stockbridge, 25
Web Site: http://www.ibeccreative.com/
Based: Portland, Me.

While a senior at the University of Southern Maine, Becky Stockbridge wrote a business plan to start a Web and graphic design business for medical professionals, a group she found was in need of logos, brochures, and informative Web sites -- and who also had the money to pay for them. She got started in 2006 with a $4,200 grant from the Libra Future Funds, a Maine-based group that helps entrepreneurs under 25. The Maine Center for Enterprise Development awarded her free office space for one year. However, Stockbridge says she found it difficult to get through to the decision-makers in medical practices. While she struggled to make contact, Stockbridge began designing Web sites and logos for other small businesses. By 2007, she had more business clients than doctor clients and shifted her focus. Last year the five-person company had about $225,000 in revenue and Stockbridge expects $350,000 in 2009.


NoteHall

What It Does: Online marketplace for class notes
Founders: Sean Conway, 25 (right); Justin Miller, 21(far right); B.J. Stephan, 24 (left); Fadi Chalfoon, 23 (second from left)
Web Site: http://www.notehall.com/
Based: Tucson, Ariz.

Launched in 2008, NoteHall is an online marketplace for college students who want to buy and sell class notes. Sean Conway, who has ADHD and finds it difficult to comprehend a lecture and take notes simultaneously, says the impetus to start the company came when he noticed fellow students shared his frustration. For initial funding, the founders used $70,000 they put together from Conway's inheritance and Miller's bar mitzvah money. To access documents, users purchase credits via the site's virtual currency system ($3 buys 100 credits; notes from one lecture cost 25 credits; a study guide costs 100 credits). When a student purchases credits and redeems them, NoteHall receives a commission that varies based on the product. According to Conway, 20 colleges and universities are participating now, including Drexel University and the University of Arizona, and an additional 30 will be by December. Last year, NoteHall had $40,000 in revenue, will be profitable this year, and expects to reach $900,000 in revenue in 2010.

God bless Nigeria

lmao!

the story of a married woman. well, doesnt have to be that way for always though. keep the guy salivating.

Since the Federal Government has already gone ahead to lease out the general air terminal and the lagos-ibadan expressway, i guess it's time for me to approach the powers that be probably 3rd mainland bridge, carter bridge and eko bridge are also available for lease. (see monie! mo' chedazz!)

mathematical jargons.

100m in 9.58secs implies an average speed of 10.43m/s .
200m in 19.19secs implies an average speed of 10.42m/s.

looks like the longer the distance, the slower monsieur bolt is: guess he's human to a great extent.
however, one thing is clear: the guy does a minimum of 10m in 1sec.        10m (dis guy is fast)

nna, why type when we have 'ctrl+c & ctrl+v'.

i'd lease the five (5) banks that have gained the most publicity within the last one (1) week for 5 years and share 'some' of the profit with fellow nairalanders.

ble ble    some things are well known while others remain as myths or fantasies. 

@ op,
