Nomad No Limit Challenge?

Is it really a challenge???

i dont think so !

y ? well, i did went to the casting, everything was ok…

i know some people who got the opportunity to go to the “seance photos” and one even got a “rendez vous” with a psy in order to proceed further…

the problem with the system is that i got the impression that they r not looking for people with the good qualities in regard to the use of internet but its rather that they are looking for people that will only n only look good on tv..thats all…
it was expected that it would be commercial but not at this extend…
according to a friend who went there for the seance photos, those who were called there were :S, not fit for the challenge…

I was told that one of the chosen (among the 15 best) did not even know how to use the net properly…
i got nothing against those selected but that friend of mine, simply got a chance to be there.
for instance, she knows only how to chat n keep a skyblog that she created.

when i subscribed myself to the competition, i was asked if i could make web sites, small programs, etc…
well, dont seem that the ones they chose know how to do all these :S !

well, we will c….
lets wait for next week and

Let the Show Begin !

  1. KI SERTI!!!!

    an ISP promoting its image by those who r at ease with camera -> commercial

    knowing web design, programing seems to b too pro to take part??? lol

  2. wahooo!! :P:P
    hehe am expecting a high standard of competition

    it would be really wasteful to see lame boys and gurls chatting for 6 days (if its all that they know :P)

    we’re talking about cyber island etc, it would be a real set back if such a mediatic event when on with easy challenges and not really showing how mauritians are at ease on the web!

  4. hello there,
    nice blog
    Am not really, into computers and internet but government was putting lots of emphasis on cyberisland,

    its sad to see, mauritians have limited use of the internet which resume to chatting,

    i’ve been to talking to a friend at uom(doin computer science),lots of guys(worst for the cse people) who don’t even have a place for them on the net,

    i’ve been to france and spent some time in Uk,
    young people out there are really very at ease on the net, have elaborate websites at a very young age and even making money from advertisement

  5. hi patrice…thnks for ur comments…

    ya, u are right…
    we dont have the web culture in mauritius, not yet!

    to start wiz, blogs should be encouraged, promoted…
    y not organise some competitions, not like that nomad one! disgusted by the casting !

    4 yrs back telecom plus, organised the web d’or for the 2nd time n since then, no more competition!
    the nomad challenge has in some way, opened a new era by making internet more advertised for a large audience through the tv…

    chatting n only chatting!

    y not adding these ;
    > maintaining a blog
    > participating in forums
    > making web sites
    > promoting some activities through web site
    > and so much more!

    well, is someone ready to promote a real web culture? in mauritius of course?

  6. Hi everyone, want to talk about the Nomad Challenge!
    I was there too, the question they ask me was if I was able to write a program? As my answer was yes, i think that I loose all my chances in participating in the final!
    I think that they have chosen the candidates randomly!
    I think that it is blackslash who will win the challenge!

    Your commrnts…..?

  7. Well it seems that the nomad challenge is a real fiasco, izzyladoo is more opt to winning this competition because i think nomad is looking for some who will be able to represent them for some coming years being like an ambasado to them.
    Anyway i think these challenges should have been opened to everyone and not from a closed space but to all mauritians able to connect to the net and use it properly. Who call it the first tv reality show when u are not able to see the people live 24/24.
    Anyway thats my view.
    take care..

  13. I feel sorry for u that i came to know abt this topic so late but nevertheless i’ll bring some clarifications to your lack of information concerning the NNLC. everything done was real. the questions set was a hard time for the challengers. if you want to know abt the challenges that the six participants underwent, rendez vous during the infotech where u will get the opportunity to play the challenges with the challengers themselves. the challenges will be on nomadlive.com during infotech.
