Hello again,
This week not a whole lot has been done, Barry has spent some time developing video clips for the website, these will be available in the next few weeks. These clips include well known celebrities such as Colin Murphy, Jake O'Kane, Keith Law & Keith Farnan! Hopefully over the next few weeks we will have even more names associated with IrishSlang.info!
Aswell as that, we have begun development of our shop. So far there are a few products available for viewing, but not for purchase. Keep checking back for more information!
Well, thats it I suppose!
Until next time, have a good day

Good Evening,
Tomorrow morning, I am going into the GMTV NI News studios in order to record a brief interview outlining the purposes and history of IrishSlang.info.
The interview will be aired soon after this, during the morning news broadcast. I am currently unsure of the actual air time, but I will keep everyone informed.
After the interview is aired, the video will be placed into our videos section.
Watch this space
Sincerely
Barry Flood
Webmaster

Hello Again!
Yes I know, its been a while since I have written an update for my blog! Last time I wrote I was in a shock about how large a response the website got! Well recently we have been seeing a steady throughflow of traffic to the site. So its been pretty good this last while! I have been out promoting the website over the past few week in various places. For example, the Empire comedy club has been kind enough to introduce the website during their gigs and have asked the audience members to take part in submission of the slang terms! As Tesco say, every little helps!
Anyway, thats all for now, i'll check in again some time soon.
Ned

Well, in a good way. This morning GMTV News NI aired an interview with myself, in which I briefly discussed the development of IrishSlang.info, as a result, the website has gone insane with the number of new submissions and visitors.

But anyway, back to the Sun newspaper. Or, the Irish Sun I should say. On thursday morning be sure to buy the Irish Son because IrishSlang.info will have an article, it shouldnt be hard to miss!
When you read it, be sure to send feedback on the forum!
Kind Regards

Hi Everyone,
Ned The Horse here, I’m pleased to see my website has finally begun to move forward. I’ve noticed allot of you posting some rather rude slang terms on here! Not to worry, its allowed, I just need to consider protecting those innocent young minds from our rude, crude and totally unacceptable language. Over the next few weeks I hope to have restricted certain categories, such as Swearing & Insulting, and also Men & Women. These categories seem to be the biggest culprits for the vulgarity!
Well, that’s all for now,
Kind Regards
Ned The Horse
