#2What is more impressive is that they have an Open Source component/model to it. I hope this will show that #madeinNigeria can be good at times if not all the time :).
Should huddle.net be Afraid :)?

#3Would you really host your Intranet on the Internet? I guess it depends on the type of information you're handling.
Still, I wish these guys all the best.

#5Impressive stuff. I wish they didn't use stock photos. No matter how nice the web design is, stock photos make it all feel "cheap". Please either take a camera and make your own photos, pay a professional photographer to make them for you or create a design that doesn't need photos.
Once again, avoid using cheap stock photos. (Same goes for avoiding using cheap production library music for videos on your site.)

I agree completely with you. I HATE STOCK PHOTOS!!
I think Mark Suster's blog will look much better without them.

#8Man, it must be hard to run an online business from Nigeria. Huge stigma and lots of the internet ip-ban it, won't ship equipment and gear there, banned or at least heavily scrutinized on many banking/payment sites... must be a hassle to deal with.

#9Uh ... I kind of interpreted the headline as saying that this was, somehow, a Nigerian (aka "419") scam. I guess it isn't, it really is an impressive startup, that just happens to be based in Nigeria? Cool.
I hope (for their sake) that not more people have the same unfortunate prejudice.

true... the most impressive 'african' startup would have been a 'clearer' title..
