“I walk slowly, but I never walk backward.”- Abraham Lincoln

Negaraku! - Hungry for Traffic?

Negaraku Net

Few months ago, I launched Negaraku.net as a news aggregator. However, time has changed. It was buggy, slow and nothing good as a Web2.0 Application.

The Old aggregator still stands, but under different subdomain, http://news.negaraku.net

Today, I’ve relaunched Negaraku.net as a clone of Digg or Layann but definitely much better than Innit.

I’m pretty sure that you bloggers out there are dying to get your stories out to the world. Eatery, daily living, politic news, business updates, tech stuff, anything you blogged about, just throw it in.

There’s a few more miles I need to stride before I can rightfully pat my back. Other features such as

  • Invite friends from email phonebook (Yahoo!, Gmail, MSN etc.)
  • External voting system (a widget like on your blog)
  • RSS of specific category
  • Auto RSS import
  • and many more I haven’t thought off.

I will spare you from explaining all the current features, just go there and mull your face. I’ve designed it to be very straight forward (usability) and simple (user interface).

Competitors to note:

It’s still in Beta Mode. So you are free to do as pleased. Just don’t throw your kitchen sink.

ps: To that special someone, I told you I’m busy right? Sorry for not entertaining you yesterday.

i just came through the new negaraku.net…
for me it looks so messy..
so i will stick with the old one..
slower than the new one..
but once it opened, the ‘mood of curiousity’ exists!

ayat mcm poyo je..tapi btol la..yg baru nampak serabut sket…hoho :cool:

Assalamualaikum bro.

I notice that there’s a link to the old Negaraku at the new site. But there isn’t any link to the new Negaraku at the old aggregator. Maybe you should put one there.

Or is it already there?

I’m guessing web user knows how to use the BACK button ;)

alonqexe replied on
July 27, 2008 at 1:59 pm

Oh. LOL. Yeah, totally forgot about that since i always come directly to the old one.

And i agree with ‘Pembaca Negaraku’, the old one rocks more than the new one. So does my other friends.
