Nigerian business men launch Africa's own social network

Just came across a story on Naijafeed about some Naija guys launching a social network called Naijaborn. Gave it a look see, and it's pretty okay considering it's BETA. Naijafeed interviewed one of the creators:

But there are already many social networks in Nigeria, especially on the web starting with faceoffestac, enownow.com, ovaloaded, naijapals, legwork e.t.c.

Whoa...that's a lot. Had no idea they were that many out there. They said their is more business oriented though.

Need to check out these other ones that u mentioned

I have no doubt it's likely to work but they'll need plenty of google ads cos people like legwork, amebo and lagosmeet are constantly advertising their social networks.
