Schedule Transparency

Wouldn’t be great to see the Irish cabinet follow Obama’s lead and publish their schedules in the open? One can even subscribe to the White House schedule by RSS or add to iCal.

Silly Season Top 5 and The Big Relaunch

We’ve come to the fag-end of the political year and all I can think about is the joy of the hooking the telly up to the laptop so I can play the greatest hits of the political season back using Windows Media Player.

My Top 5 in no particular order, would be

  • Eamon Ryan defending Willie O’Dea
  • The Seanad debate on the social welfare provisions in the last Budget
  • John O’Donoghue’s long goodbye
  • The Seanad Select Committee on Members’ Interests and Ivor’s expenses claims
  • Any Seanad Order of Business

Oh yes, and just to whet your appetite – the site is relaunching in September and have a raft of new features coming online in the Winter. Until then, we’re enjoying the Silly Season just as much as you are.
