Love the domain name: Earth.ie helps you keep track of the things done to promote sustainability in Greystones and Wicklow.

Via Dawn of the Deadly: Sleigh Bells – Tell ‘Em
Asked to mention this. Good tune, like the samples used.
Master Chef, the Irish version. I hope it’s good. Who’ll be entering?
I suppose I should highlight these more. Cork Social Media Course in May and Dublin Social Media Course in May still have spaces. My last of 2011 before I go into retirement/hibernation/breakdown mode.

Pen and Pixel is a Tipp IT digital media exhibition and a photography competition which will be held on the 14th of April at 6.30pm. Students have to organize and promote the exhibition themselves.
Like this quote from Morgan via SBP:
IQ Content’s Morgan McKeagney took a sobering look at the world of digital marketing, and called for an end to ‘‘hype, bullshit and bling’’. The construction industry’s theory – build it and they will come – had virtually destroyed the Irish economy, and the same attitude had prevailed in much of digital media, argued McKeagney.
Coconut Records “West Coast”
Holy recessionary parenting. “Getting your kids to pay their way
Cancer charities now updating Wikipedia entries on cancer. Makes sense to make these articles better instead of trying to outSEO them.
Blogs for everything including the witty notes on the signs in your local Tube station.
Loads of videos on YouTube from Harvard.
Jack in Media Contact asked me to do a workshop for the Media Contact Mash conference in May and asked me to figure out what I wanted to cover. He also wanted to try out something new and make me a “media sponsor”. New meedja/social meedja etc.
The idea being that I use my media channels (Blog, Twitter etc) to highlight the conference and my workshop and I get a return if anyone that follows the link above or here buys a ticket. Being honest, I like the idea but have always tried not to make any money from this blog apart from linking to my business site. I can’t bundle my share into a ticket sales reduction as then every media partner would be ignored if mine were cheaper so whatever is made from ticket sales kickbacks via those links, I’ll probably put it to non-Damien use. Maybe I’ll randomly post it to someone or something or do a KLF on it.
Anyways, I’d just written an article for the Cork Independent on things that can be done to websites/Facebook/Twitter that can improve so thought it might make an interesting talk. Going to cover 15 points, 15 minutes each. We’ll have a novelty clock perhaps. This is some of the blurb:
Perfect for those who want an overview of digital marketing. Perfect for those who only have fifteen minutes a week to work on digital marketing. Perfect for those with short attention spans. Perfect for those with short attention spans.
And the talk marks me not doing a public talk again. Until perhaps 2012 but maybe longer. We’ll see. It’ll be refreshing to go to a conference and not see Damien Mulley’s name somewhere. I’ll do a blog post on the takeaways from the workshop a bit afterwards too. This is the link that pays for my jelly bean addiction.
