Wireless World of Smithfield
June 09, 2004
I'm delighted to be able to write something good, positive, happy and buzzed up today. I feel like I've been having a bit too much of a rant of late. But it's hard not to when all the good news stories are locked away in a world of confidentiality agreements! Like the Irish operations of a global FMCG company that is launching its Irish intranet. Or the Irish food company that has made the right decision and switched to Brightspark...
There are happy things going on here but I just can't blog about them.
The good news that I can blog about is that summer has officially arrived in Dublin. For today Brightspark was out in the lawns of Brightspark HQ working away on the laptop, enjoying the sunshine, visiting websites and responding to email thanks to the wireless connection. [If anyone has tips on how to adjust the screen so that it is visible in glaring sunlight, please provide! I looked cool though].
And there is a new cafe opening soon on Capel Street. I'm very excited because it's the first one up the top of the street and it's really near me. Now I can work wirelessly while sipping a skinny machiato in Dublin city!
The only downside is that I have to get past the skangy Claddagh Ring pub with all the smokers standing around outside it. Thus, setting the tone for the blogs to follow, I sign off on this warm and breezy Dublin night...
