From TeenCamp Ireland Jan 17th Niall has an excellent profile of Damien Mulley and what he has done for the Irish Tech Scene. It is brilliant to see what everyone thinks of him. What have gotten from Mulley? Not alot directly, but if it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be blogging, I wouldn’t be on twitter, I wouldn’t have been at TeenCamp. To put it simple this man is IT when it comes to tech and has always pointed...

Name 5 bloggers you haven’t met in the flesh before that you’d like to say hi to at the Blog Awards, say why if you want, link to them.

Bitz, one Santa’s elfs, has discovered Twitter and is helping Norad track santa using that! You can embed a map tracking...

After blogging about RTÉ’s Digital Radio last night I discovered two more DAB Stations in Ireland. They are mocharadio.ie, all80s.ie and Raidió Rí-Rá (which I only found tonight!). The three stations are run by Digital Radio Ltd. Mocha Radio is a station all about r’n’b and soul. They aim for “Smooth Hits with a Kick”. A good station that I have enjoyed listening too! All 80s is just what it says on the tin, a radio channel blasting out...
