  • Despite all the rumours that Google were working on a rival to the iPhone, they didn’t make a mobile phone… Oh no! … They made a mobile phone ‘platform’! Yeah…! …’Scuse me.

  • Tribune Business Editor fired for… quoting a blogger? (via Damien)

  • What do names mean? What should you name your brand new bébé? Let BabyNamey help you decide!

  • Keep an eye on this one… The Chancer – it’s the new Blogorrah, don’t you know…

  • Add Wi-Fi to any camera that takes an SD card (via Donncha)

  • I’m trying this out (and admittedly not getting very far with it…) – Make your Ubuntu desktop look just like Mac OSX. Smart.

  • From 138 votes so far, 62% AGREE with the new learner driver laws.

  • The Irish School of Motoring have their own blog… and even I got a mention on it (for ShiteDrivers.com of course).

  • Couldn’t find an article for this, but trust me… it’s true… while Damien has already blogged about the impending 3 SkypePhone launch, there’s more – 3 Ireland are also launching the Nokia N95 into the Irish market in the middle of November. Yes, they’ve finally finished testing and have decided it’s good enough for their network. Not sure of prices but it’s looking like selling for around €239 €329 on the highest (€99 per month) price plan – and for more on the lower plans. (Update: It’ll also be available on pre-pay for a whopping €599, and will be €499 on the lowest pay monthly tariff, with lower prices on the higher tariffs).

  • And finally, a couple of entertaining videos:

    CSI:Dundalk – hope they make some more of these!
