There were two interesting conferences on in Dublin this week.

• BizCamp Dublin in The Digital Hub
• The Global Irish Economic Forum in Farmleigh (I am sceptical about the number and quality of the Irish politicians involved in this conference!)

Unfortunately, I did not have time to attend either conference :( (Even if I did have time, I would not have been invited to one of them :D )

I had to validate some web pages today that are optimised for mobile devices. I found ready.mobi very useful!

The web pages that I checked got a score of 5. I do not know what the maximum score is though!

I learned today that DCU is to outsource all of its email to Google. I estimate that DCU must have tens of thousands of email accounts. So I would have thought that it would be more cost effective to provide this service in-house.

For more detail about this see Information Systems and Services.

A friend recently sent me this interesting article – Super-safe Web browsing.

I read about the latest PDA from HTC today – my favourite PDA manufacturer :o Its latest offering is the HTC Hero. Probably the best review that I read was HTC Hero review.

This PDA appears to be very nice, although its “chin” (the bent piece at the bottom) seems strange!

I have not actually handled an Android based PDA yet, so I am not sure that I would be happy to move away from Windows Mobile!
