NaijaPulse is a free microblogging service. Users post short (140 character) updates known as pulses which are broadcast to their friends, colleagues, family and fans using the Web, RSS, or instant messages.
If you'd like to try it out, first register a new account. Then, on the public timeline, enter your message into the textbox at the top of the page, and click "Send". It will go out on the public timeline and to anyone who is subscribed to your notices (probably nobody, at first).
To subscribe to other people's pulses, go to their profile page and click the "subscribe" button. They'll get a notice that you're now subscribed to their pulses, and will often subscribe back to you.
