I know you don’t normally do this but was wondering if you’d show these new interface designs for the Taxi Check-in app? We are all young Irish graphic designers working on this late into the night.

Taxi Check-in now has contracts with Xpert Taxis, Global Taxis, Reidy’s Cabs, and Exchequer Taxis. The app currently allows you to view the taxi details and send your location and the details to a friend. There’s big developements on the way this year which are really unique and will change what we expect when we hail a taxi off the street. Thanks from all of us.

 

Thoughts?

What you may need to know:

1. It’s a documentary about Napster.

2. It’s directed by Alex Winter, AKA Bill S. Preston.

2. Bewildered Noel Gallagher @ 1’26

3. Napster still exists, but not really.

4. Spoiler Alert: It all worked out for Sean Parker: Justin Trousersnake played him in a movie, and he’s got more money than you.

5. Prognosis: Most excellent.

Release Date: Who cares? Download it instead.

Cheers to the Bazmeister General

Further to our hard-hitting editorial about St Brigid and her irregular-shaped crucifix.

Hi there folks at broadsheet. Just to let you know that the St.Brigid’s Cross is alive and well. There was a workshop held last Sunday in the Seamus Ennis Centre in the Naul, Co Dublin by Ronan Russell of Newgrange Willow Design.

It was attended by young fellas, young ones and oul ones. We each made two crosses which we brought home well in time for 1st Feb.

She is still out there, is St. Brigid…..patroness of poetry also, betcha didn’t know that lads? Happy St Brigid’s day.

 

Well, that’s us told.

Everyone was there.

‘There’ being Doheny and Nesbitt’s on Merrion Row, Dublin, for the launch of maverick political philosopher Desmond Fennell’s new book of essays ‘Third Stroke Did It’.

And ‘everyone’ included  from top: Eamon Dunphy, who launched the book with Sarah Egan (left) and Tara Walsh; Desmond Fennell; Jane Gogan and Cilian Fennell and Emily Hourican and Stuart Carolan.
