A lot of events…

The biggest date for most people in the Irish blogosphere in the coming weeks won’t be Mother’s Day. It will, of course, be the Irish Blog Awards held on March 1st in the Alexander Hotel in Dublin. Before that, under the umbrella of IWTC, will be the inaugural Ireland Geek Girl Dinner, organised by Martha Rotter [...]
BarCamp Galway – Sat 22nd Sep

Firstly, I won’t be going as I’ll be on honeymoon. With BarCamp Galway less than a month away, the usual blogstorm has broken out about how to make BarCamp better, how to break the cliqué-ness of it, how to avoid wikis, make sign up easier, all the usual stuff that we’ve heard at each one since [...]
Jetlag, Blog Awards and Updates…
Posted by Elly on Wednesday, February 14, 2007 at 8:10 pm. 3 Comments.
As I’ve said in a few other posts, I was attending meetings in the Phoenix area of Arizona last week. Although we were in solid meetings all day from 8am – 5pm (and sometimes later), I was still able to get out and about seeing old friends and shopping. I have a huge amount of thoughts [...]

Death and Divorce in the Digital World

I’ve been meaning to load up my presentation that I gave at BarCamp a few weeks ago, but it kept slipping my mind. I had a decent turnout, made harder that I was running against one of the more popular panel session! My session really did pose more questions than it answered, and one of [...]
BarCamp SE – Pecha Kucha
Posted by Elly on Wednesday, January 31, 2007 at 7:12 pm. 2 Comments.
Now that the secret of the Pecha Kucha session is out in the wild (or ‘Pikachu’ as Laura kept referring to it!), I thought I’d post up a few notes and links to the sites I talked about. Everyone else that spoke used del.icio.us for their links, and although I tried using it at [...]

Session 4 and listening to Bernie Goldbach talk about how he dropped 35,000 on a failed startup.

He makes some very interesting points: You need to watch for the ‘red lights’ [...]

Third round of talks and I’ve gone for SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) while George went to hear about WLAN for sheltered housing projects. Both fascinating topics, but you gotta make a decision! Eoghan McCabe has an excellent knowledge of white and black hat techniques for raising your page ranking.. This is something that I [...]

Second talk under way and I stayed in the Atrium to hear Sabrina Dent talking about “Making Money in Second Life”, while George went off to hear about microformats and OPML. I hadn’t even realised that the game existed until the last couple of weeks when I heard about it on the talk list. It’s [...]

until BarCamp Ireland in Cork… Really looking forward to it at this point, especially as it means a half day off work and a weekend away for me! The list of attendees is up over 100 now, and there’s a great mix going to be attending – however, from a quick straw poll, only 10% of attendees [...]

Really looking forward to heading to Barcamp Ireland at the end of this month… Hate doing the drive to Cork, but the Hubbie and myself decided to make a weekend of it. After a failed attempt to book a room in the Clarion hotel, I managed to get us into Isaac’s Hotel, which [...]
