For Captcha, we are trying to make it secure without Captcha. But if our current security fails, we will fall on captcha. We have gone for 3months without the captcha and I guess alot of bots have been stopped. SECURITY BY OBSCURITY. I will personally work on the TRIBE to something like ETHNIC GROUP, but socially some people will connect more with people form their ETHNIC GROUP, we are not promoting, we just give them what they like. @Tunde I like your support and if you need me in anyway to code, to engineer or to advice. I am 100% ready @Ife the profession drop down is a tough war between, having good search engine system for naijaborns and given them all their professions. we wanted to let any body write his or her own profession but then, the search will not work if I write webdesigner and another person writes web designer. So we made it selectable. the next step, we will make it auto suggest. thanks for pointing. Please just try to see the one thats most related to you for now. when we update that feature, we will notify on our blog Thanks David and thank you all Please SHOW YA SEF!!

I'm jumping on the train, just that I can seem to locate my exact profession..so that I can adequately show ma sef!(on a lighter note). I think this is a site we really need for more social networking among Nigerians and I pray they achieve their aim. I wish the owners of Naijaborn the very best!

But to be candid,the team of naijaborn has clearly started on very good note and worthy of note.The future is indeed bright.I never imagined that i would be joining another social networking website apart from facebook, not to talk of it being a Nigerian oriented social network. Its good that we web developers can come up with things from scratch such as this.Soon we too will be going live with our online startup venture called stayinabuja.com a hospitality,travel & lifestyle web portal offering premium content in the area of hotels directory listing in Abuja,FCT. I know its about time we took our rightful place in the cyber space.
