The design of the new Sherry FitzGerald website is something I had a hand in with Image Now. It has a nice distinctive look. There are a couple of UI and search engine niceties that have to be looked at, but I think it’s looking pretty good.

eBay.ie: Kevin Thornton will cook in your kitchen, in aid of People in Need, an Irish charity. You can also visit Kevin’s blog.

Here’s my latest entrepreneurial venture, the Swords Express, a frequent regular service from Swords (the third-biggest town in Ireland) and Dublin city centre. At present, it can take up to 90 minutes to get to Swords from the city. By using the Port Tunnel, we hope to halve that. I think this service could make a big difference to Swords. I hope I can find ways to get the support of the local community to make this a big success for them and for us. If anyone out there can help or has any comments to make, that would be much appreciated.

It follows that no use should be made of the name “easy” (or anything similar to it) without our consent.

That’s easyToUnderstand. They’re definitely not looking for easyMoney. I know it’s easyToForget to capitalize your company name too.

My book just arrived in the post. I am very happy to see it. Finally, the Internet is a safer place for small businesses.
