I’ve been a little quiet here on my blog lately, much of the reason is my time is being eating up with the new venture www.YoughalOnline.com. I spoke about this in a previous post well I just want to update on the happenings with that website.
We broadcasted the St. Patrick’s Day Parade 2008 live on the homepage of the site and it was a huge success. We had viewers watching live from the U.S.A, Australia, New Zealand, U.K, Germany, France, Spain, Poland, India, Canada & Ireland. although the live stream was 43mins long I edited the stream down to 9:50secs for the main parts which you can view below.
St. Patrick’s Day Parade Youghal Webcast
Below are some photos taken by my brother
Gerard McCarthy of the event on the day. By the way thats myself on the DV camera.
We have posted 39 news articles including photos in less than 5 weeks and continue to post daily. The Online Video section of the site is proving very popular. Traffic to the site has increased by an average of 30% each week, which we are more than pleased. We are also getting local business interest in sponsored advertising so I will have to work on that strategy next!
That’s all for now…. short note: I have a nice “Band/Musicians” template module in the making which I will post up here for free download soon.

I’ve come to realise a strange pattern when booking ticket online using ticketmaster.ie First off when I am logged into my account with them and I’m searching for tickets why is it that I can never book the lower advertised (cheap seats) prices? its like those prices don’t exist for online users.
I say this as having bought quiet a lot of tickets this year alone from them. A recent example was buying 2 tickets for a friend for the “Prince” concert in Croke Park this summer. The morning of the sale I was logged in prior to the 8:00am ticket sale and as soon as online booking started I proceeded to book 2 tickets but no giochi di poker on linetornei poker livestrp poker onlinelive poker tourscarica gioco pokerregole gioco pokergiochi internetpoker downloadpoker italiagiochi di carte pokerscommesse internetsoftware gioco pokerregole omahapoker download gratisgiochi gratis video pokerpoker pc gratisstrip poker flashgiochi di poker gratisstrip poker online demopoker online italianopai gow pokergiochi casino da scaricare gratisgiochi keno gratiskeno onlinedownload giochi casinocasino italia bonuscasino on line rouletteslots machine gratisdownload rouletteeurobarre casino on netroulette on line gratis,roulette on line,giochi on line roulettecasino on line americangiochi baccaratcasino online autorizzaticasino tropez bonus codetrucchi casino on line,casino on line,giochi casino gratis on linegioca alla roulettecasino con bonus gratiscasino gratis senza depositoforum casino onlineroulette strategystanze di gioco migliorikeno inlineacasino internetcasino sanremo onlineroulette virtualenoleggio video pokergioco pc casinogioco della roulettecasino o net matter what way I tried to book I had no choice but pay the premium price of €126.50 + booking fee per ticket as apposed to the much cheaper €66.50 per ticket, I just don’t get it!
Same scenario booking tickets for “Wwe Raw - Wrestlemania Revenge Tour” Belfast, I’m taking my two sons to that event as they are completely into wrestling at the moment, well they’re aged 11 and 8 so it will be a mind blower for them, but tickets for that event were advertised at €20 and €55 per ticket and guess what Yep! I had no choice but pay the premium again online.
Anybody out there manage to book standard tickets with ticketmaster.ie online? I’d like to know?

Just want to announce a new website for Youghal town called www.youghalonline.com
YoughalOnline.com is the website for online community news, with fresh content, local news articles, and photos/video on a daily basis. Developed from an idea by Michael Hussey an excellent local photographer and journalist and myself coming from a web development background. The idea was to keep the content fresh and incorporate photos and video with the news articles, call it a news/photo/video blog. There are several other Youghal related websites but we felt neither updated their sites regularly and their content was stale.
Allowing people to comment and interact with news articles will be a welcome to some people as a way to air their views and also to get users opinions on local issues.
We are developing an online video section which will feature Youghal related videos from around the web coming from sites such as YouTube, Revver, MySpace, Bebo and many others. This video section will also feature live web cam events as they happen.
St. Patrick’s Day Parade, Youghal, 2008 - Live Web Broadcast
To launch the live video section of the site we are broadcasting this years St. Patricks Day parade live, this live cam event has been kindly sponsored by Youghal Bay Seafoods
The live video will also be available to view after the parade at YoughalOnline.com as we will have it archived for future viewing.
