The following is a guest post from the Irish Internet Association’s (IIA) CEO Joan Mulvihill. We’ll be speaking to Joan later this week on the Technology.ie podcast as well. I was a member of a gym for years and I used to go around four times a week…low and behold, I got to know the [...]

Did You Win The Xbox?
When we launched our Xbox 360 giveaway a couple of weeks ago we honestly did not know if people would be interested in it or not..We thought it would be fun, but would you? Well you obviously were, as we’ve seen a lot of interest from people and received over 10 thousand entries!!! Now that [...]
Say It With Flowers .. Or Maybe A Domain?
Next week is Valentine’s Day.. so why settle for boring old flowers that wilt or chocolates that melt (and are full of calories)? Why not go for a proper gift – a nice new personal domain name! Bert likes the idea, and since he’s a big bad dragon (though probably cuter than most) we thought [...]

Calm Reasoned Dialogue Helps
The last week or so has been “interesting” to say the least. (Last time round it was only a couple of days. …. now it’s stretched to a week) It’s also been incredibly busy, which is why I’m only getting round to posting this now and even now I doubt that anything I post will [...]
Think Of The Hungry Dragons And Get Mobile
Mobile is big and getting bigger. If you ignore it as part of your business then you do so at your peril. Bert, our pet Dragon, wanted to get a takeaway and all he could find was a PDF menu! And while you may not believe in dragons you’ve probably come across restaurant websites that [...]
Anonymous Targets Irish Government Sites In Response To “Irish SOPA”
The last couple of days have been very “interesting”. As I mentioned previously, the Irish government intends to enact legislation that could have a “chilling effect”. I went into this a bit in my previous post and far more eloquent people have written extensively about the entire subject. My key issues with the legislation can [...]
Say No To An Irish SOPA Style Law Say Yes To Democracy
Remember SOPA? We didn’t like it and it was pretty clear that a lot of internet users weren’t too happy about it either. However SOPA was being debated openly in Congress. There was discussion. There were public hearings. There was also a massive backlash of public opinion, but that is one of the beauties of [...]
