€3 Million for 2 young Limerick entrepeneurs
As word spread in the blogging world of two young Limerick lads who successfully sold their company Auctomatic to a Canadian firm for €3 million, some bloggers have one thing in common, in giving out about Enterprise Ireland and County Enterprise Boards on their lack of support for these young business men. And it's the same for many start ups who try to find seed money to kick-start their venture, leading to big sales to foreign investors. I'm jealous of the guys on their big sale, but also fair play to them for doing everything they can here in Ireland to fund their company. We need more young people like them, ensuring that Ireland continue to be innovative and not reliant on foreign companies and investors. This all came out of my Reaching the Market lecturer quick mention of two young Limerick lads who sold their business for multi-million Euro, but acquired no support from Irish enterprise boards. Typical, isn't it?

See, and friends say we were geek!
Guy proposes over Twitter. All we did was use Google docs and Google calendar to manage our wedding stuff, created our own wedding site with online RSVP (as well as the retro sending of invitations by snail mail).

Anti-parent on Facebook! Now that is not right.
The article, When Mom or Dad Asks To Be a Facebook Friend, shows some young people in the States are shocked, so much so, groups for anti-parents in Facebook groups have appeared. I personally don't see this as a problem. These young people want to keep their party lives in college to themselves, but their profile is still public. Act like eejits, they would have to deal with future employers and their parents seeing what they get up to on those nights out. If you want to keep things private, don't put anything online, simple as that.
