Site of the Week: Nigerian Blogs Aggregator

The featured site this week is Nigerianbloggers.com, a parking lot for naija bloggers. Its a very novel and timely site for us Nigerians writing about our thoughts and opinion of daily events in the country and around the world. The site is pristine enough which allowed it to focus on its stated goal with the featured blogs listed alphabetically accompany by the RSS feeds of the recently updated blogs and their summary direct from Technorati.com.

From the site:
Nigerian Blogs aggregator was founded by Kayode Muyibi on the 24th of August 2005 as a move to establish a home for live feeds for all Nigerian written blogs arround the globe and also blogs of Nigerian interests especially by expatriates based in Nigeria.

Their future plans:
1. Blogging Awards. (Team ready but waiting for my feedback)
2. Blog entry of the week.
3. A Chat room ,Still looking for a good server.
4. A sourvenier Shop, selling shirts and sourveneirs with beautiful logos of "I AM A NIGERIAN BLOGGER" etc.
5 A section for freebies. Still contemplating on whether it is necessary. Stay tuned.

Your site of the week has gained some limelight.

Remmy Nweke, a senior reporter on Information and Communications Technology (ICT) with Daily Champion, a national daily in Lagos (Nigeria), recently threw a spotlight on NigerianBloggers.com bringing to fore the phenomenon that has been making waves in other parts of the world. He headlined his write-up "Blogging as a trend in Nigeria"
