Overview: www.kiakiatinz.com PART 1

#kiakiatinz aka www.kiakiatinz.com is a mobile portal developed to serve information quickly to mobile users. #kiakiatinz was built using #HTML5, #CSS3, #jQuerymobile, and #jQuery framework.
I started this project early this year, the first month(January) i guest and ever since then i have been working on it.
Wow, the road to success is hopeless, because it takes more than hope to achieve a great result. What keeps me going to complete the first version of the project was that it will do a great deal for mobile users in this part of the world where there are slow Internet connections and most of the information portal are just so heavy or too large for an average mobile phone to download.
My previous goal was to get these informations and serve them on the portal, but i figured out that i will be infringing on peoples copyright, so i decided to get this informations and summarize them in brief so that anyone who is interested in a particular information can simply follow the link to the original source.
I also want to thank Omar M., for assisting me with codes snippet to perform certain task, he has been such a gift to this project right from the start. He is a vital part of #kiakiatinz.
#kiakiatinz features local news, world news, sports, entertainments, gossips, politics, weather reports, live chat, business, currency rates, tech watch, latest jobs, while lifestyle and map/gps features are coming soon.
The part of this project that inspires me more was the live chat feature, i wanted something more than 160 characters and also open to all without registration so included the captcha and made the characters 400.

#kiakiatinz is built basically for Nigerians like myself to enjoy fast information anywhere we go.

Thanks for reading up to this point, i will share more insight about this beautiful project and how you can be a vital part of it on my next post about #kiakiatinz
