A video ‘postcard’ (and short history lesson) to MTV viewers on Patty’s Day, 1982, from October-era U2 in the Dublin docklands, looking like Dresden after the war.

Techovate 2012?
A two-day (March 21 and 22) event at the fancy new Wexford Opera House bringing “Silicon Valley to the South-East” organised by the not-for-profit job creation organisation, Innovation Wexford and the region’s entrepreneur ‘alliance’, Fuse.
Sez they:
The conference concept came about after a group of entrepreneurs travelled to Silicon Valley and knocked on doors to forge links with the diaspora in Northern California to help develop growth within the Irish SME sector.
Speakers include Coder Dojo co-founder Bill Liao and Fred Karlsson, who started Irish internet godzilla, DoneDeal.ie
It’s the future, dude.
No money, favours, etc were given for this post
Broadsheet’s ‘engine’ Nat King Coleslaw, humble Kerryman, old-school gent and delicate beauty, celebrates his birthday today.
He has one request. A song.
Sez Nat:
It’s Duncan Murphy AKA Sunken Foal. He appeared on a compilation released by Mary Anne Hobbs (BBC Radio 1) in 2009. And he’s Irish! And he’s awesome. And it’s nearly Saint Pattycakes day!
Oh, go on then.
