Eat and Meet New People

dinetomeetI heard about DineToMeet some time ago and the idea struck me as being pretty cool.

If, like me, you’re over 30 and working full time somewhere other than your native town, it’s always a bit of a challenge to meet new people.

The DineToMeet concept isn’t “dating” it’s more socialising, which sounds like it could be really good fun.

I haven’t had a chance to take part as they don’t run the events in Carlow, but I suspect it would be good fun.

In any case it’s a cool idea.

XKCD Geek Cartoon Strips

xkcdIf you’re a bit of a geek or nerd, then you’ll probably know XKCD.

If you don’t, well you should!

XKCD is sheer genius, though some of its comics might offend the more sensitive types (PG rating perchance?)

This one always makes me giggle a little:

Dealing With Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)

beating rsiI’m really not into self-help or healthy sites. I’m the least likely person to go out and get one of those books or DVDs.

However I do like sites that are practical and use plain English.

RSI or repetitive strain injury is one of those ailments that affects quite a few people sometimes without them even being aware at first (think tennis elbow).

Beating RSI is a simple site where the author talks about various gadgets and techniques that he has been trying out to help with RSI. It’s not technical or complicated. It’s just simple and straight forward.

Nice!

Inphotos

Whenever I come across sites like InPhotos I always feel a bit jealous. Donncha O’Caoimh has been taking photos for years and setup InPhotos to show off his work and boy is it impressive!

A lot of the photos are of his native Cork, but there are also quite a few of other locations.

Well worth adding to your RSS reader.

Irish Web Awards

irish web awards logo

Although nominations for the Irish Web Awards are now closed it’s definitely worth a mention.

I’ll be looking forward to seeing which sites get nominated and shortlisted for the first year of this new award.

Unlike a lot of the other awards out there the Irish Web Awards are very much run as a “not for profit – cover our costs only” type event.

This hopefully will mean that more interesting submissions will be made than those you’re likely to see at a “pay to enter” type event.

Definitely one to watch!
