My video about the Kyle Hates criminal case in Limerick went viral yesterday. I posted it yesterday morning on TikTok and YouTube, amongst other sites, and it has, 24 hours later, been viewed 272,800 times on TikTok and 22,000 times on YouTube. It has also been viewed by thousands of Instagram and Facebook account holders.… Continue reading My video about the Kyle Hayes case went

Podcasts on YouTube
Did you know that YouTube have got into podcasting in the last year or two? And not just video podcasts, but regular audio podcasts. I submit the RSS feed from my podcast, “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast”, from Spotify/Anchor to YouTube. The results have been pleasantly surprising. Because YouTube seems to be finding… Continue reading Podcasts on YouTube
I used to care about Twitter/X
I used to care about Twitter, and how many followers I had, impressions per post, likes, mentions etc. Now? I could not care less. It has little or no value for me and, I suspect, most small business owners. The game has moved on significantly in the last few years and has changed. TikTok, Instagram,… Continue reading I used to care about Twitter/X
Moving office
I am looking forward to moving office here in Enfield in the next couple of months. We need more space. I have reached agreement for a lease on a different premises, not far from my existing office which I have occupied here in Enfield since 2013. I am working on finalising the window signage and… Continue reading Moving office
Why don’t the protestors talk plain for once?
It’s stomach churning when protestors or supporters are interviewed by the much despised, so-called mainstream media-for example RTE news reporters. The talking out both sides of the mouth and with forked tongues would be laughable if not so serious. It would be tremendously refreshing for a person to say, “we don’t want strangers around here,… Continue reading Why don’t the protestors talk plain for once?
Online marketing is easier now than when I started in 2009
When I first started marketing my business online in 2009 it was harder than it is now. Back then the big beast was Google because Google dominated search with the two biggest search engines: Google and YouTube. A lot has changed over the subsequent decade or so and it is easier now to build a… Continue reading Online marketing is easier now than when I started in 2009
The Burkes’ first court appearance of the year
I read a very funny piece in the newspaper (online) this morning by Miriam Lord. It was a description of the first appearance of the year of the Burkes of Castlebar. The appearance was a virtual one by video link from the Ashling Hotel in Dublin 8 as the Burkes were only going to be… Continue reading The Burkes’ first court appearance of the year
Will the State succeed in countering misinformation around asylum seekers?
It was reported yesterday evening on the RTE news that the government is to commence a campaign of communication to try to counter the misinformation and disinformation around the question of accommodating asylum seekers. It is a campaign which I will watch with a great deal of interest. It seems to me that government will… Continue reading Will the State succeed in countering misinformation around asylum seekers?
I’m getting better at ignoring the comments
I’m getting better at ignoring the knuckle dragger comments. You know the ones-the homophobes, transphobes, bigots, racists, misogynists, the violently disgruntled, chips on both shoulders’ guys and gals. The ones bleating on about Ireland being a corrupt, failed State, the judiciary being corrupt, all politicians being on the take, yada yada yada. Occasionally I slip.… Continue reading I’m getting better at ignoring the comments
Looking under the bonnet of my video about the immigration issue
I published a video last week on my YouTube channel which touched upon the question of immigration to Ireland. It has generated a significant amount of comment and if you were to read through the comments you might (wrongly) conclude that the Irish people were opposed to housing asylum seekers. But if you look under… Continue reading Looking under the bonnet of my video about the immigration issue
