The BBC iPlayer service is a great idea. Aunty gets with the new kids and onto d’Internet. They even got Mister BlackBeltJones too (yes, him, the dood that “found” warchalking - if bbj reads this, I spent 3 months of one summer chalking Dublin..*so* much fun was had).
Well, the Beeb lied:

It is supposed to […]

[First post in a while…it took some time!]
I started reading a few months ago about Dopplr…
As I happen to work for one of the “Dopplr 100″ companies, I managed to get a invite-beta.
To read from their about:

Dopplr is an online service for frequent travellers. It was created by an international team of world travellers. Dopplr […]

[UPDATE]: My problem is with the classic version (which I think has changed from the “previous” classic version that was used). Jonathan from Newsgator has kindly commented below. Thanks Jonthan, and Brent also.
This is the interface I have a problem with.

It can take up to 40 seconds to load the page, or navigate through the […]

Tom made a point about the etenders.ie domain name being mistaken for the etenders.gov.ie domain name by a friend of his.

Any migrations I ever had to do, well lets say they took a little longer than the 25 minutes (and I suppose […]

[UPDATE:] Mick has made use of the new Pipes from Yahoo (PIPES PIPES!! MY PIPES ARE FULL! URGH) and made a Cory/Xeni-less Boing Boing feed.
Head here and get it
Mick has commented with a fantastic piss-take post by someone on Cory Doctorow’s wonderful fanboy-righteous-but-wanky style of talking.
Also I like the idea of killfiling Cory, Xeni Wallflower-whatever-her-name-is […]

Speaking with Ruairi Roddy of about 6 months ago, I asked him about their regional newspapers releasing RSS feeds, so us “country-folk” could keep up-to-date with the local goings on of home (for me its Waterford).
It was interesting to be working in one recruitment search site, trying to get RSS feeds launched, while hoping others […]

I have been using Netvibes for the past 6-7 months, on and off. Since starting in Nokia, I have started using it daily, for well most of my web-based stuff.

One really great thing is the amount of tabs and plugins/widgets/addons (whatever the word of the week is), from Meebo IM tabs, to imageviewers, to Flickr […]
