BBM display pictures/avatars or “DPs” as they are called in this parts are a huge deal apparently. With newer BlackBerry devices and most other devices now taking pictures in the 16:9 format rather than the 4:3 by default, sizing pictures into the square “window” provided has become an issue this day with many having to resort to the aid of photo grid and other apps to carry out this task... Save yourself the stress by trying out either of the two method below;
>> Andriod Users; An app for that tittle Profile without cropping is available on playstore for download.. its size fits your display pictures no matter the size, aspect ratio or orientation into the square box provided for your display picture. You can download the app off Google play name "profile without cropping"
>> Other users; If you are old school and do not want to go the app route, here is a quick tip, while viewing the picture you want to use, turn your device 90 degrees (make sure your orientation lock isn’t on) and take a screenshot. Try to use the screenshot and you will be able to fit the whole picture.

MTN Nigeria Telecommunications service provider and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), with the National Orientation Agency (NOA), on Friday in Abuja unveiled an innovative software application, called “BetterMe App”, designed to bring transparency to the electoral process through real time online election monitoring, voters education and engagement.
Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, the General Manager, MTN Consumer Marketing, Mr. Richard Iweanoge, said the application which was now available to over 60 million MTN subscribers had inbuilt content on voter education ostensibly geared towards deepening the country’s electoral process; adding that Nigerians would now have the unhindered access of monitoring the coming February through their mobile devices.He said: "A subscriber can access information on candidates for the elections, their plans and manifestoes as well as their strategic thrust and policy direction of the various political parties.
"In a remark, INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, represented by Mr. Oluwole Uzzi, a Director at the commission said the purpose of the collaboration was to bring more credibility to the entire electoral process through voter education and engagement. He said "When the idea was mooted, we were quite excited because of the positive benefits that the app has in engaging the voter and enhancing their participation in theelectoral process.
INEC went into partnership with MTN because of the reach of its network." Jega commended MTN and Mr. Fola Akinmolayan of NEO 2 limited, the designer of the app, adding, "Without being prompted, they have developed the app to help enhance access to information and voter education.
According to the INEC boss, for elections to be credible, voters must participate in the electoral process in an informed manner. The BetterMe app, Uzzi said, had unusual application security agencies, election observers, the Civil Society Groups and otherstakeholders, adding that other public and corporate organisations should key into the application for the country’s overall development.
Also speaking, the Director General of NOA, Mr. Mike Omeri expressed satisfaction that the app was developed by a young Nigerian, adding “This uplifting that the BetterMe app was developed by a Nigerian, an indication of the country’s potential in the IT world.With the app, he said Nigerians both within and outside the country would be able to witness and participate fully in the electoral process.
On the safe guard of the app from hackers, Akinmolayan assured that the app had inbuilt curators that would make it will very difficult for hackers to distort the streaming of content because the content would directly emanate from INEC or any other credible agency like NOA. He said MTN had the capability to fully monitor all that was generated to ensure that it was coming from the right source."Creating content in real time has been madepossible by INEC. Social media content are curated from INEC website, syndicated newsabout the election and other relevant information as released by the commission".
Akinmolayan said: "MTN will be able to curate and allow people to upload contents like videos. we are looking forward to integrating features where we want people on election day to show us information around their areas and the way the voting is being conducted.

What better way to start this new year than to begin with a business insight.. In this case blogging. "Now starting a blog is kind of like buying a house: you decide what neighborhood you want to live in, pick a house, and fill it with your stuff. For a blogger, that means deciding on a blogging platform, picking a theme, and publishing posts. "I assume if you're here, then you must own a blog, or intend to own one (or just want to see what this person has to say).
Today thanks to Ujsizzle a Nairanlander some of the most basic rules news beginners, prospective and dissatisfied bloggers could use to get their sites running are listed and explain below;
1. Know why you are here: People blog for different reasons. It could be for financial purposes, community building, rendering your quota of help to a dying race, advertising your company etc. So the first thing you need to ask yourself is,"why do I need a blog? "Do I want to pursue excellence, create something for myself, become more visible on the web, or just because Jack owns a blog too? If you don't know why you're here, then we don't know either.
2. Choose a suitable platform; Once you've successfully figured out the 'why', the next step is to find an appropriate location to help you actualize your goal. There are so many platforms that allow you create a blog for free. Most common in this part of the world are Blogger/Blogspot and Wordpress. If you want a more professional feel and full control over your site, then you can find a suitable webhost who charge meager fees annually. Make sure you study the proposed environment before pitching your tent. Some common questions you might like to ask yourself are: How interactive is this platform? Is it easily assessable? How much control do I have? Is it reasonably safe from hackers? Do I feel at home here? Once you've gotten the nitty-gritty down, you can pitch your tent and choose a unique address for yourself.
3.Content is everything; So the saying goes. Remember you're here for a reason, be it connecting or just plain gossiping to/about the human race. Pay adequate attention to the things you write and how they are presented on your site. Last I checked plagiarism was still an offence, so if you are not going give visitors original content, then have the courtesy to give credit to Mama Emeka who was kind enough to cook it up. If and when you do decide to create something of your own, then be proud enough to display it. Proof read for typos because no one wants to be hit by roadblocks at every paragraph. I believe there's a writer in everyone, and something must work for you. Find your voice and stay true to yourself.
4. Find your voice; Have you ever heard someone speak, or the sound of their foot fall and even without looking, you could tell exactly who it was? If your answer is yes, then you can create the exact feeling on your blog. Every writer has a voice even though it might take a while to find and hone it. Most times we spend our time trying to sound like someone else--that's a lot like living another persons' life. Finding your voice is like finding yourself, a very unique you. If it helps, you can try free-writing for a couple of minutes (first draft) and do that without editing. When you read aloud to yourself, what does it sound like? Your readers want you, so give them the authentic version of yourself. There's no point lying to score cheap points--practice honesty without full disclosure if you must.
5. Content loves design; Your theme is your colour book and the one thing that makes your content shine. One rule of thumb is to keep your design as simple as possible, using only very necessary widgets to create the best user experience (including loading time). Remember, your purpose of blogging is for people to pay attention to what you're trying to communicate, not ooh and ahh over your struggle with the rainbow. Most themes come ready made with template options--headers, widgets, so tweak and play with everything until you find something that feels comfortable and easy on the eyes. Otherwise you could purchase Premium themes to give more options if what's availableis unsuitable, or just pay someone to tell you want you need. Also ensure to choose a theme that allows for a cluster-free mobile/tablet view.
6. Interact with the blogosphere; If your purpose of blogging is to create a diary or make money, then please jump to 7. If you are interested in community building, please read on.There is something extremely boring about living in housing estates: Nobody wants to see their neighbors, or feel the need to see them to begin with. If that's the kind of environment you want--a blog without comments or life--then by all means be a loner. Otherwise you can get out of your hole and find people. It's a rich community out there, and if there's something I've learned, it's that people want to talk. It might be difficult to find one blog in a sea of a million, but when you start getting those likes, shares, comment and appreciation mails, it's accompanied by a warm fuzzy feeling. Chances of people locating you are really slim, but you can speed things up by visiting others sites and leaving meaningful comments. And by "meaningful" I don't mean 'nice one', 'cool', 'ok'....no. Say something that tells the author you've actually read their post, you understand exactly what they are talking about, or that you don't get what's going on but you wish things will go well for them in the future...or share your story too.
7. Take advantage of social media; Be it a post by you or by anyone else people out there are curious enough to click on links, like what they see and share with their community too. It's basic networking and you can get that to work for you. Just add those share buttons to your site and encourage your readers to share whatever they like. They might not be saying much but at least you know they're coming. Also remember to tell your friends about your blog and request their support. You can only be so good to attract people like bees, but you also need to make them feel needed.
8. Find support; You are not all-knowing and the epitome of supreme knowledge. Even after following these, you'll still need a second and third opinion, beta readers and explanations for all the techy stuff that'll improve your site. Best way to approach this is by seeking help from people who are more knowledgeable and don't mind extending a helping hand. When I started my blog I got super confused at some point that I had to ask some nairalanders for help. What I got in return was priceless. If you don't know where to turn, find someone from the webmaster section of this forum, create a thread stating your difficulties, consult search engines or contact support from your host platform. The world is filled with people who want to extend their knowledge and skills to others.
9. Be patient; We all like to believe miracles happen--and sometimes they do--but they don't always come when we want it. The best gift you can give yourself is patience. It can be a bit daunting waiting for something big to happen, but it will happen if you stay true to yourself and work a little harder. Everything comes with a price and yours will be time and dedication. If you put in effort to improve your site, content and relationship with people, I bet you'll see results.
10. Remember how small you are on the web; There will always be people who write better than you, communicate better and are way better at blog-hopping. When you see those stats displayed at the bottom of their page, or the 50-200 comments, you will wonder when and if you'll ever be as big as they are. But never forget how big you can become. Push yourself, experiment, have fun, steal ideas (duh!), buddy up and for goodness sake love your blog. If you can't love it, then neither can we.
>> Obviously it was worth the ride, Big credit Shout out go to Ujsizzle once again don't forget checkout his blog here for more inspiration and for what it's worth i adopted some tips here when i first started so it ain't too late to put your blog on the right foundation... Goodluck!!!
1. BBM: When chatting with her. you will just see her message you "my subscription will expire tomorrow" whats my business with that?? Message her two days after she will still be available but won't chat with u....she wants u to pay for her subscription that's all.
2. WHATSAPP: After serious chatting you will just see; "I would love to continue chatting with you but my Mb is finished" so what tha fuck should I do?? lol.. just Be ready to send her card if u want the chat to continue.
3. 2GO: You will just received a message in this format "pls am currently on my way to see my mum in lagos she is sick bt am stranded along lagos - ibadan express way can u please send me credit so I can call her?" Your mum is sick and you still got time to 2go??
After Politics it's Football.. Not all this enyimba foot sha.. lol.. The 26-year-old Super Eagles forward Ideye Brown broke a record at English club, West Bromwich Albion in July 2014 when he was signed for £10 million having joined from Ukrainian side, Dynamo Kyiv.
Ideye, who has played in both the Champions League and Europa League, has scored 5 goals in 24 appearances for Nigeria. In 2013, he helped Nigeria clinch its 3rd African Cup of Nations title, scoring in the 4-1 semi-final victory over Mali.
The good news is that Ideye has just acquired a new Rolls Royce Ghost Series II. Disclosing this on Instagram, Super Eagles/ (Israel) Hapoel Be’er Sheva midfielder, John Ogu uploaded his friend’s new ride with a caption, ”Congrats to my Man @ideyebrown for his New Whip ROLL ROYCE GHOST… 2015 we Ready For You.. You will Get Yours too By GOD’s Grace.”
Valued at $250,000, the Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II is powered by a 6.6-liter, twin-turbocharged V-12, which produces 563 horsepower and 575 lb-ft of torque. This powerhouse, based on the BMW 760i’s 6.0-liter V-12, is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Another big thing: on the Ghost, the gearbox is “satellite-aided” in order to predict the driver’s next moves and shift or hold gears accordingly.
With the fall of tablets sales (most especially ipads and samsung tablets) as a result of lack of productivity and their existence as a consumer product, microsoft laplet ( a tablet with laptop specs tagged as 'a tablet' that can replace a laptop) is gradually wining the heart of americas and europeans.
The high sales of microsoft laplet, surface pro 3 has lead apple to start developing 'ipad pro or ipad plus' with mac os (instead of weak ios) to rival surface pro 3.......i guess the success of tablet pc (laplet) will pose a great threat to android tablets... 2015 shall tell..
Once again would like to give a shout out to the pipz at 9jabasewap.com.. According to em with Etisalat Paygo you can DOWNLOAD UP TO 15GB Of Files for just N100 Every day... I am sure you all want to join the crew afterall that's why you click the link so my advice is you Follow the Below procedure correctly... Thank You..
N.B; Make sure you are in a good coverage area.. if possible climb a hilltop to get a 4G Service..
1. Ensure your sim is on easycliq plan.
2. Make sure any previous data plan doesn’t auto- renew itself, deducting your money, by dialing *229*0#.
3. Enter the PAYG plan by dialing *229*5*7#,
4. Wait for sms; “Dear customer, your subscription to PAYG by pulse is successful. Browsing now attracts 15-Naira per 5mins- Pulse.”

9. To browse all sites without risk of deduction (eg. youtube), use a vpn. Start vpn BEFORE the other internet apps.10. Connect and browse. Do not exceed 50mins. On reaching 50 minute disconnect, wait a bit and reconnect. Then Time it again.
11. At some point, you may get “You have used up your data. Browsing now costs 5k/KB…” Disregard this.
12. You should only be concerned if ur credit was deducted, in which case you’ll get “You have used ***kb and charged =N=***… etc” then You need to carry out step 8 again.

The video has now been watched over 2 billion times, a number YouTube didn’t see coming and wasn’t programmed. Hence the numbers broke their programming code with its numbers of view.
Here’s what YouTube had to say on the issue as of yesterday’s landmark and subsequent code change [see tweet below] , YouTube can now theoretically support videos with up to 9 quintillion views.... op op op!!! oppa gagnam style!!!
A leader his someone who influence people in many ways and at such D’Banj has gone platinum in that aspect on Twitter with Over 1million Followers...
Wizkid had first achieved the landmark in Nigeria, Davido followed swiftly now D’Banj has now joined the number of millionaires (in terms of followership) on the social network. Don Jazzy is also expected to hit 1m followers soon.
