The wonder of google and youtube!





It's unbelievable, the sun is actually shining in Sligo, and we are told it may even shine tomorrow as well.

We threw a big outdoor party yesterday and had tons of friends round, it was great fun and i think everyone had a great time. The weird thing is that google has the potential to feck up that staple of all parties, the lively debate (we would never call them arguments.

Yesterday both Google and Youtube amazed a few people with thier capabilities, the conversation was about olympics when two of the lads had a difference over what race Dave Wottle won at the Munich Olympics in 1972.. there was no agreement so inside for the computer, a quick google and we had the Wikipedia entry for the bould Dave, which proved that TJ was right.. then he asked was there any pictures of Wootle on the net.. a quick youtube later and i was able to say..."i'll do better than that... would you like to see the race?" and so there were a load of people sitting on the patio watching the 1972 800 metres final.

the world is changing pretty rapid.
