LAGbook Share and Earn is an innovative way we use to encourage socialising. Imagine earning recharge vouchers everyday for connecting and sharing with people - it can't get any better.
It is really simple. On other social networks, you share photos, events, videos, links, notes etc without getting any reward. You simply do it for the fun of it, isn't it? But if you do same on LAGbook, you earn free recharge vouchers instantly!

When you log into LAGbook, you will see the recharge earned on LAGbook underneath your profile picture on the top left of the homepage (just as seen in the cross-section of the homepage of the user below).
Share and Earn allows us to rate every activity of a user in LAGbook and reward them accordingly, such as photo additions, blog posts and friend requests.
Your recharge earned may not increase immediately with every new content you share or with every friend you add on LAGbook but it will definitely increase with time.
For every network, the minimum pay out is ₦1,500 and we will send the PIN(s) to recharge to your LAGbook inbox based on the network you selected while filling your "profile questions" on LAGbook.

LAGbook is one of Africa's fastest growing social networks created on 17th April 2010 by Chidi and Chika Nwaogu and launched on the internet on 25th April 2010. With 71009 registered members, LAGbook is still growing by the minute.
A social network initially created for students of the University of Lagos, expanded to all Nigerians two months after its inception. LAGbook expanded to 21 countries in Africa on 17th April 2011. These 21 African countries included: Botswanna, Cameroon, The Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Liberia, Malawi, Mauritius, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Swaziland, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

LAGbook is privately owned by LAGbook Inc. and funded by Virtual Naija Inc. and UFA Enterprises.
LAGbook serves you from a cluster of Apache application servers, proxied by a bunch of nginx load-balancers. All our operating systems are Linux based, more specifically a mix of Debian and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Our database is open source MySQL, scaled thanks to a technique called database sharding. We run a set of Postfix for the outgoing email, and Apache James for incoming ones.
Our application is written in PHP. Most of our cronjobs are either shell or Python scripts. We use Java to handle incoming email.
As for storage, we rely on Amazon S3.

According to Chika, "I am the laziest person you could ever run into. Just imagine if I choose to be hardworking".

Terms of Service
Rules on LAGbook
There are a few ground rules for participation in LAGbook. Please respect these rules, and each other.
Be civil. No personal attacks. Do not feel compelled to defend your honor in public.
Stay on topic in Forums. Please pay attention to the topic of your messages, and check that it still relates to its parent. Off-topic discussion not taken to private email is eligible for removal.
Be kind to newcomers. Newcomers may be annoying. But lots of valued contributors started out this way, and treating newcomers kindly makes them more likely to turn into the valuable community members we all know and love. So while you don't have to humor them or suffer them gladly, and it's fine to point out when they make mistakes, point newcomers in the right direction in addition to turning them away from the wrong ones, and be kind to them in the process of correcting their transgressions.
Let sleeping dogs lie. It's tempting to revisit controversial decisions you do not agree with, but it's rarely productive to do so, since it almost always results in the same heated, lengthy, and time/energy draining discussions leading to the same conclusion that was reached in the last round. Therefore, for issues already raised, discussed, and decided upon, reopen the discussion only if you have significant new information that would reasonably prompt reconsideration of the original decision.
Ignore spammers. Spam is a blight upon the face of the net. Nobody likes it. However, it is hard to avoid. Despite our best efforts, you will occasionally see spam on our site. However, don't forget that complaining about spam in public increases noise, but not signal. It may make you feel better, but it doesn't help.
Identify your subject matter. Not everyone has time reading all forum and wiki postings. To ensure that your message reach the right people at timely manner, identify your subject matter clearly in the subject line. Subjects like a question and problem are not very helpful.
No unsubscribe messages. Unfortunately, this bears repeating.
No test messages. Please do not send test messages to the forum. You can, however, create test pages on the Wiki, but please don't forget to delete them after you finish learning.
