Bandon Gardai stopped this van at a fork in the road beacuse it had no tax/certificate of roadworthiness and a spoon for a ignition key. Van was seized and a court date for the driver. You could cut the tension with a knife.

"The smart city, in computer metaphor terms, is a mainframe. Not only is this not seen as undesirable — its a vision and design strategy actively pushed by the corporations — but it is largely not seen or understood by urban policymakers." "Smart" article. https://t.co/qMRrZYG7oo

Great to hear @DanKielyVoxpro highlight the need for more accommodation to cater for the 400 new jobs @VoxproGroup are creating. But what about the bus service? @Buseireann provides an atrocious service to Corkonians, bewildered visitors & workers from abroad @corkcitycouncil

[Dan Kiely @DanKielyMASV]

We are delighted to announce or continued expansion in @VoxproGroup #Cork today https://t.co/H0SJApO9Nc @rtenews @RTEbusiness @rte #DigitalTransformation #InvestInIreland #BelongatVoxpro 🇮🇪

Cork needs a digital event that's more than just an awards ceremony or a coffee morning with flip charts. Something Digital is all about celebrating Brisbane’s digital ecosystem & the incredible people that power it. https://t.co/z6JXtLazXO. @smartcork let's do one of these here!

As fast as tech companies are pursuing and recruiting developers, non-tech companies are hiring developers at an even faster rate and in larger numbers https://t.co/1GSp98bTmE. In Cork what do we know @itcork about these companies, who they are and what they are doing?

Digital Cork loves this banner and hopes it means we will be invited to the next digital vision meeting held by @corkcitycouncil. Perhaps we can even take it as an invitation. Shaping the digital future of Cork.

[Digital Cork @digital_cork]

I've actually been shouting about this for 6 years, when I got published in the Irish Times https://t.co/E7hsZpcwta. "Two-thirds of online spending, worth more than €3 billion a year, takes place abroad." As the size of our digital economy increases, so does this amount. Action!

@digital_cork has been shouting about this for the last 2 years
It's time for #Cork to get a Digital Strategy

The next generation of Digital Townies starting young to save the High Street @Digi_Town @SmartCork @smartlimerick @smartdublin @CorkChamber

[Virgin Media News @VirginMediaNews]

If you want to save the high street, it’s time to start shopping. That’s the message from Cork Business leaders. @PaulByrne_1 has the story

[Digital Cork @digital_cork]

@MagsIsOnline I think you're right but as far as I know the meeting was about Cork's digital vision and the digital ecosystem should probably include indigenous digital businesses, digital start-ups, traditional businesses undergoing digital transformation, etc

[Digital Cork @digital_cork]

Digital Cork would have welcomed the opportunity to contribute to Cork's digital vision at the Digital Cities Challenge session held last week. We missed the context of the digital ecosystem that was presented at the event. Any insights into what this represents would be welcome.

Limerick launches its Digital Strategy, citing among its references the Brisbane Digital Strategy https://t.co/xlBu2BTdLX. By 2020, it aims to boost online services, including eCommerce, public WiFi, technological innovations, and ‘smart communities’ @smartcork @smartlimerick
