Joe Ryan from Labour has a neat but depressing feature on his blog. It shows the increase in youth unemployment in Wexford. 700 in April to 1200 this month.
I only saw this now (hey I was busy dynamiting Building 7) but this is a lovely post from Lottie.
Lee Munroe is running a marathon for a kids’ charity. He has a sponsor site up.

Why has there been silence from the representative group of Irish ISPs? The ISPAI has yet to say a thing about the eircom/IRMA deal. Does this mean they are not against it?
