Inbox crises

After clearing another few hundred e-mails out of my inbox on the plane to London yesterday, and realising that Thunderbird's tagging of messages wasn't really doing anything useful for me, I've now created five subfolders of my inbox with various levels of priority.

I was driving back to Galway on Monday morning and I heard my name being mentioned on Galway Bay FM in relation to the IIA Net Visionary Awards 2006 which are being held next week.

When I looked up the nominations shortlist, I saw that the other two people in my category are also from Galway - Des Kenny from kennys.ie, and Richard Moyles from mattress.ie / furniture.ie - so someone from Galway is going to win :)

Today FM's Ray D'Arcy Show (or rather Tuesday guest griper Ian O'Doherty) gave a passing mention to boards.ie two days ago and the usual tensions between those members who are from the capital and those who are not.

I broadcast my last Ambient Zone show on Flirt FM last Wednesday; it was a sad day but I have lots of good memories including "shows that worked" and interviews, etc. over the past 9 or 10 years.
