The Nairaland Effect!

In the world of social networking sites like MySpace, You Tube, Slashdot and others, Digg is King! The reason being the dizzying traffic that Digg brings your way, whenever the users popularly vote (Dugg), any story from your site. We had and still have a local version of "Digg Effect" today, since morning, when the Administrator of Nairaland, Seun Osewa, anchored and linked The Gardener's Daughter Blog on the front page of the Nairaland Forum, for his over 58,000 regsitered users and inummerable guests. As at the last count traffic from Nairaland has quadruppled their normal flow to our blog. Seun, that's a big treat coming from a Prodigy and fountain of youthful enterprise of your status. Thanks for your endorsements and solidarity with the "Gardener's family" here. On behalf of Luisa Fernanda and Carlos Eduardo, we love to say thank you. I just was not able to capture the full screenshot well the first time, so I had to delete the first post. Below is how I saw the link on Nairaland's Front Page today:
