Funny... But i am not suprised. I saw so many nairaland pages bookmarked on a friend"s system.. He eats and breaths nairaland. I mean arent there other productive things to do online apart from nairalanding?
Webmasters › What Do You Mostly Do Online? by specialguest(op): 3:50pm On Oct 29, 2012
I find myself mostly online (either i am working or browsing through websites i am addicted to) and sometimes people ask me questions like "what are you doing online or what website are you browsing?" to be honest, it used to be so annoying earlier on having to explain " oh i am on nairaland checking out the latest news" or i am searching for an information on google. But after careful consideration, i realised that most people who own devices that can browse ( laptops, web enabled phones, tablets,etc) actually have no idea about what to do online...

I would list a few things i do online/ the websites i visit often and i am asking fellow nairalanders to contribute for the sake of those who don't know what to do online. Hopefully this would be a sort of directory for them to consult when they have a need to browse.


1. www.nairaland.com- you can find virtually any information you need over here. I call it the one stop palace for browsing!
2. dbaforums.org - its an oracle forum for database administrators
3. www.mindtools.com- you can find resources here on a wide range of management tools. From problem solving to project management etc
4. www.cosmopolitan.co.uk- hmmmnnn my favorite online female magazine. Lots of intresting articles on fashion, love and sex.
5.www.youtube.com - free music videos and nija movies to watch.

As for the things i do online here"s a few:
Chatting on yahoo messenger or video calls on skype, playing games, taking random tutorials on my areas of interest, etc

Over to you ladies and gentlemen. Tell us the websites you frequently visit and what else you do online.

fluid26: You may not be far from the truth. The *naming thing can't be that trivial...there's gotta be more to it.
I also like people who think #outofthebox like you just did.. Besides she cant just name the baby after the ex just because he talks to her on fone.. Abi na only him be the manfriend wey she dey follow talk ?

Food › Re: Price Of Garri Skyrockets Astronomically by specialguest(f): 8:09am On Oct 16, 2012
Handsomeemmy: So what can we do to bring down the price of Garri ?
The garri comrades must have a plan B and if they dont i advise they hold a national conference and get back to their drawing boards to design a solution. I guess they never saw this coming when they launched the Garri campaign.. That is why planning is an essential part of project management.
Food › Re: Price Of Garri Skyrockets Astronomically by specialguest(f):
Why wont the SUBSIDY on garri be removed when GARRI commrades have succeeded in making it a popular commodity via your aggressive campaigns and tantrums on nairaland... Now that you have achieved your goal we now see how it has AFFECTED THE PRICE OF GARRI in the market.

Who says we cant use the social network to bring about a change in Nigeria? undecided.

The punishment obviously out weighs the crime... Btw 2007 till now i believe they must have served enough jail term already to warrant a pardon.
But then you can never tell what an armed robber would do next... Lord have mercy on them
Events › Re: Is This Okay For A Moderate Wedding? by specialguest(f): 3:47pm On Oct 11, 2012
Its ok but personally i dont find mr biggs appealing as a wedding Reception/ lunch venue. Reason been that the food tastes funny ever since i became an adult angry (i think a few will agree with me) ... Since a wedding is suppozed to be a memorable event id suggest u sought the assistance of friends/ relatives to cook at home and you can have the lunch in your living room or if its small then you could put up a meduim sized canopy in the compound, plastic chairs and tables dont cost much to rent.
In addition get a dj in the same manner you get the cooks.. Scout for one among your cousins, brothers, brother in laws, friends etc someone should be good at spinning.

All the best.
Family › Re: 70-yr-old Man Insists On Marrying 12-yr-old To Boost Wealth by specialguest(f): 3:34pm On Oct 11, 2012
What is it about this topic that is causing a religious riot right here? Cant We keep religious sentiments aside and discuss about possible options for the girl to be saved from the trauma this 70 year old great grand father is causing her...

As educated and enlightened as we claim to be on Nairaland i expect solutions to be created i.e someone who knows an NGO that deals with child welfare in Nigeria should help the poor girl by notifying them about her case.. It is sad that so many other young girls in rural places especially those remote villages up north have been forced / decieved into this kind of marriages, you only get to hear thier stories when you visit the vvf centers in general hospitals.
Family › Re: Advise Him: He Got This Mail From His Wife by specialguest(f): 9:53pm On Oct 07, 2012
undecidedToo many marriage consellor"s on Nairaland.. Too many cooks spoil the broth..

@Op the only advise you need to follow right now is your wife"s, read in between the lines and make amendments. That didn't look like a suicide note to me instead I saw a woman desiring for understanding and compassion from her husband.
And While you are at it kindly do away with your side runs(if any)your family needs ALL of you.

Awon oloriburuku! Criminals
I laugh in queen"s english cheesy if the bill sails through that means they will import the lecturer"s instead of exporting their kids.. If I may ask what is the motive behind this kind of bill?

I mean its not as if most of them personally pay for their kids to study abroad, they just hijack the scholarships from ptdf,min of edu,nddc, and other grants we don't even know exist and give to their “practically“ dull children.

PastelChic: This really is a gurl that has seen the greatness in her man and loves him unconditionally for who he is...This is true love..they are indeed match made in heaven and soulmate... many men indeed may have had the chance in their lifetime to have met a woman like this, but may have gone on with the "man thing..the game, looking out for superficial qualitites instead of the real thing...many have had the real thing stare them in the face, but was too dumb to recognise it...beauty is only skin deep and its fading....I will tell You what will stand the test of time, the beauty inside this lady..so men, instead of lusting after a Kardashian, miss world or the glitters...(ask GOD for Your soulmate..)The bone of Your bones and flesh of your flesh..and for all saying 9j gurls will zap if they were thrown into this situation, You must have gone after the wrong thing in the first place..water will always find its level...also not many 9j man who also are prone to infedelity will stand by their woman in times of trial..they will use it as escape route for their philandering...even if the man remains faithful, His homies and family members instead of laud His love and courage for his wifey, will pile frustatrations to their union and encourage the man to leave his wife
Rightly said pastelChic... There couldnt have been a better explanation to this love!

Family › Re: Why This Rise In Marriage Failure? by specialguest(f): 7:12pm On Sep 29, 2012
I quite agree with alot of the reasons been stated here as to why marriages fail...... However i ask do people actually marry these days or wed?

Sadly more emphasize is given to the wedding ( reception, asoebi, decor, wedding gown, bridal train, groom"s shoes, etc) than to the marriage (living as husband and wife after the wedding)... Gone are days when a bride to be was was literally " prepared" for her groom, now the preparation is all about which magazine would cover the wedding reception, what band will play, what colour of gele will the aunts tie, what souvenirs to give the guests etc...

Now i ask again what happens when the couple are left alone in their home, without been " prepped" on what to expect after the fanfare is over?
