Irishelection.com in the Irish Times
Monday, March 20th, 2006Todays (Tuesday 21st March) Irish Times features a large piece on blogging in the upcoming Irish Election.
As part of the feature I interviewed Cian O’Flaherty of Irishelection.com about his new site, what its goal is and what role he sees it playing come May 2007.
The piece is available to view here (subs required). I’ll post the text of it at some point tonight.
Congratulations Cian and Co.; the articles published today show a rising trend in mainstream interest in blogging. This can only be good things for the Irish blogosphere which is currently enjoying a boom across the board.
