Irish Political News

Yaaay! or Grooooccchhhh! depending on your attitude. Here. Here’s what it is about: Welcome to the Church Times blog. A ‘blog’, for those mystified by the term, is widely regarded as ‘a website where entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order’ (Wikipedia). The Church Times blog will be written and drawn by Dave Walker and will feature cartoons, commentary and links. The RSS feed is here. It should also (unless Dave Walker has lost his touch) be both engaging and amusing. I like the cups of coffee on the bloggeration machine. Worth tracking, as it may end up being used for breaking News Stories, as a complement to the website and reaching a different audience. Wordpress it ain’t - rather they are displaying creative use of their website-management system - but the only real problem I can see is that on individual article pages (example) the RSS icon you see in the header actually leads to the News RSS feed not the Blog RSS feed. That requires fixing or there will be some confused people out there. [Update 17:15 pm] Dave Walker confirms that this has now been worked around by adding an extra RSS icon in the blog header bar. A couple of hours since I mentioned it - not a bad response time. You do get a link to the RSS feed on summary pages, however. (Cartoon credit: Cartoonchurch.com) Tags: church times, blog, dave walker
