I’m excited to announce that this blog started a few months ago which has grown exponentially over the last 3 months is now ranked amongst the top 100 000 websites in the world, according to Alexa.

Just about two months ago, we set a goal to break Alexa’s top 100 000 sites in the world by December 31st 2008. Well, we didn’t, but just 10 days into 2009, we are happy we did.

What next?

We are poised to become a world-class technology/media blog that covers technology, innovation and entrepreneurship ideas from Nigeria. We want to become (if possible) the Mashable of Nigeria or even the TechCrunch of Africa;-)
