Saw a post just now on photomatt.net about French bloggers using WordPress and it got me thinking about how many Irish people are using it. So, I bounced over to Google and did a search for WordPress on “Irish sites only” and it turned up the following (entries posted as Google found them):
- Punkassmomo by Dermot Williams
- Marc’s Blog by Marc
- Macreddin Market IQ Blog by Ed Byrne
- Dublin Art and Technology Association by same.
- Human Connectedness Group Blog by MIT Media Lab Europe
- Coin-Operated Blog by Jonah Brucker-Cohen
- Stublog by page
- Tiernan’s Blog by Tiernan O’Toole
Impressed by the MIT Media Lab blog, I had a tour of their place about 6 months ago and they’re developing some cool technology and seem to know good blogging software too. BTW I’m trusting Google that these are actually Irish blogs but its opened my eyes to other bloggers using the same tools I am, in my own country. I haven’t got much time to post more at the moment….so, let the call go out for Irish WordPressers to make their presence known….

It’s not exactly french bloggers but bloggers who blog in French and use WordPress

You missed Donnacha’s – Holy Shmoly. I’m thinking of moving over to WordPress myself, but I’m still to be convinced, but saying that, I’m very close to being convinced/

the only problem with searching for irish sites only is that google with only class sites with irish IP addresses as irish. im currently hosting my site is the states, but it will be moving home soon. anyway, thanks for linking to me!

Thanks for the comments guys:
Jean-Luc, yes but Irish bloggers could well be posting in Irish.
Dave, I missed out on Holy Shmoly as the firewall here in work won’t let me access it. It falls under the “Chat” category.
Tiernan, I thought that alright and the ironic thing is that this site is hosted in California too.
