I’ve already mentioned Recruit Ireland being on Twitter. Twitter account here. But there are more too:
For example:
Muzu TV is on Twitter and having fun.
Blacknight.
Conduit Ireland are there.
Vodafone Ireland – not sure is this an official or unofficial or faux account.
Setanta Sports.
Any more out there?
Update: Yes there are –
Poetry Ireland
Bubble Brothers and here.
Movies.ie
iQ Content
Litriocht – online book shop
Herb Street Restaurant
Electric Picnic
Irish Music TV

Have you already mentioned Bubble Brothers?
I know it’s probably to be expected , but iQContent are also on there at twitter.com/iqcontent
Very surprised that the AA doesn’t twitter updates on latest traffic situation. It would be very good PR if the M50 people set up a twitter to give status updates when it goes barrier free shortly.
Most of the RTE feeds are on there, thanks to a kind soul called Darran Crowley: http://blog.langersblog.com/2007/09/twitter-bots.html
Few examples of start stop ones in the Limerick region from smaller enterprises, including Absolute hotel and Ciarans Cafe-
https://twitter.com/ciarans
neither of which have been updated in months. Limerick Independent spend Wednesday morning putting up most of the headlines from that week but then nothing until the following week.

There is also a Galway And Cork Indie twitter feed
Big difference in a company being “on” Twitter, versus a company posting their RSS feeds to Twtiter, with no interaction of any sort!
http://twitter.com/litriocht
Stop/start but there… Shamefully has a mis-types URL.
Another one that quickly comes to mind is Movies.ie: http://twitter.com/movies_ie
Started building something like this, but with an eye to Irish Twitter Brands. Basically, an Irish version of this. But obviously, a * lot * smaller.
Mind if I link back here when I’m done? Perhaps, grab a few that I missed?
Muzu’s updates are protected – sort of defeats the entire thing….
Crewger is on there –> http://twitter.com/crewger/
Tweeting about Irish indy films and all that sort of stuff.
[…] If you’re new here, you might like to subscribe using our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! What with having so much time on our hands for idle mooching through the forest of new-fangled ways of doing things, you can now, if you’ve a mind to, follow Bubble Brothers via Twitter (precisely, @bubblebrothers). We are one of a select but growing gang of Irish businesses drawing attention to themselves in this way. Damien Mulley recently posted a round-up.

We (oriel recruitment) have started using it in the hope of making us a little more accessible to the candidates that we are working with. People have a misconception of what goes on with a recruitment agency so hoping that Twitter can help us out with this. http://twitter.com/orielrecruit or http://www.oriel.ie.
and me!!
[…] on Twitter too are the trendspotters and trend makers. I recently put a list together here of Irish Businesses on Twitter and that is of course […]

Hi Damien
Dec Fitzgerald of Microsoft brought this link to the attention of the Irish Recruiters Group (950+ members and growing) last night at a meet-up that we had in Dublin last night. Hope to see more of my fellow group members posing their twitter handles here. FYI, ours is http://www.twitter.com/selectpeople
We’re an overseas headhunter.
Might be a good idea to update this list as some of the companies you listed last year have stopped tweeting yet many more new ones have joined the revolution!
