Fluffy Links – May 24th 2007

IrishElection.com are still looking for voluntary reporters for count day tomorrow. Sign up if you’ll be around a count centre.

They’ll also be offering free text updates during the day for those people who won’t be near a TV or Radio.

Additionally they have a nice little widget which displays text messages that you send into them tomorrow.

Gonna make you sweat:

Dedicated to Bertie and his finances. Things that make you go hmmm
