Exams and projects are getting in the way of me updating this, but there are a few things I need to cover before their deadlines expire.

On November 27 (that’s Thursday folks, see what I mean by a deadline?) Jason Roe is organizing a blogger /web meeting /tweetup/meetku in the Porter House Central in Dublin. A fine venue (with Murphy Ice Cream for those inclined to sweetness) . Given that its very near the Soundcheck night on , South William Street, Dublin 2 where pop culture blogger Rick O’Shea is doing a DJ thing, there is every chance of a moving meet.

And dancing. There will be dancing.

As you’re a blogger (if not, pretend) , would you like to take part in a cross Ireland Christkindl?
This is a mixed idea between LeCraic and enormous. The idea is that a bunch of Irish people all register, and at random you are assigned another person to buy a gift for (with a limit of €15). It works well for bloggers as you could read their blog and find out what they are like. But is should work for anyone. Give a little fun this Christmas.

The fair lady Sabrina Dent (probably accompanied by Emer the I wonder dog) is actually a Master. She is going to give a masterclass in blogging on December 2. The difference between a masterclass and a class is that the pupils get to stand before the rest and show off their wares while the master (or mistress, or master mistress in this case) is going to critique and correct.
Currently the times is listed as 1 to 5 pm, but chances are it will either be shorter, or two linked classes. Cork City Centre in a yet to be determined venue. (I’ll update when I hear).

Don’t know about dancing, but Sabrina has assured the class that there will be smoke breaks.

And finally, Food. On December 17 Niall Harbison is putting together a Christmas lunch for bloggers and also for people who run their own business and have only a couple of employees and wouldn’t be able to organise a very spectacular event on their own. He might also allow a few bloggers who have had their Christmas party cancelled.

There you go. Dance, give (and receive) type and nom.
take care,
Will Knott
