Half of Ireland "Computer illiterates"

If this means half of Ireland is computer literate I’d call that success.
What Medical Professionals say…
Friday, May 16th, 2008Before the procedure…
| They Say… | They Mean… |
| This won’t hurt at all | This will probably hurt a little |
| You may feel some pressure | This will probably hurt you |
| You might feel a slight prick | This is definitely going to hurt you |
| There might been some stinging | You will have to muffle a cry of pain |
| This may hurt a little | You will need restraints, I’m watching for a violent response |
| This will hurt | You may prefer death, in fact people have died from the pain alone during this procedure |
Customer Testimonial - Blacknight
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008PutPlace.com has been a Blacknight customer until very recently. We moved because it made more sense for us to place our hosting in EC2 (close to our S3 storage) rather than at a remote location (bandwidth costs between an EC2 host and S3 bucket are $0) .
I can’t remember how long we hosted with Blacknight becuase their were no events to mark the passage of time. No outages, no notices of compromised credit cards, no issues whatsoever, just plain sailng all the way, solid, dependable and stable.
I still use blacknight for all my personal stuff (like this blog) and Michele continues to go beyond the call of duty in donating domains to worthy causes for free.
There are lots of good hosting providers out there but I will continue to recommend blacknight for anyone looking for an Irish based hosting solution.
Well done to all the crew at Blacknight.
Salim Ismail is in Town on Monday
Friday, May 9th, 2008Salim Ismail is in town next Monday (12th May) and suggested a meetup somewhere in Dublin. The Market Bar is traditionally where we hold these events, so if you’d like to shoot the breeze with Salim and lower a few beers at the same time come on down to Market Bar at 7.30pm on Monday.
Better make that 6.30pm Salim has to split at 7.30pm to make his flight.
