When Cork OCC kicked off, we used Upcoming.org as the site on which to list the dates of the meetups. For a variety of technical reasons I moved that to Eventful after a few months. Unfortunately, most of the blogs/sites that list technology/business events in Ireland use Upcoming so we are missing out on some [...]

David Reilly from PJ ODriscoll’s has put together a great overview of the key issues to be aware of in Confidentiality agreements. Gordon has made it available via Google Docs here. Any questions or comments can be added on this post and I’m sure David will address them.

Just a reminder that there are regular OCC meetups in Limerick, Dublin, Waterford, Belfast and Galway if you are ever there on a day they are happening.
The Dublin one is tomorrow (Thursday 31st Jan) in the Morrison Hotel at 9am. I have to say I love that venue. Bright and airy, with really friendly staff, [...]

I’m trying to plan slightly further ahead than previously and nail down the next few OCCs. This Friday is obviously in the NSC. After that I think we should shoot for:
8th Feb – City Centre. Either Webworks or Luigi Malones. If someone wants to demo that day then we should try and get Webworks. Please [...]

Brian McAuliffe from something.ie is looking for feedback on the soon to be released rev-2 of something.ie and will give a brief demo. Rev-2 will essentially let anyone create a white labelled social network as easy as creating a blog (or so they say).
It also looks like there is plenty of interest in discussing [...]

I think the 2008 kick-off went particularly well on Friday with the addition of a small bit pf structure helping things immensely. For those of you who couldn’t make it, here is a quick recap and links to some videos.
We held it in the boardroom of the Rubicon Centre to get access to a projector
John [...]

As a commercial lawyer in PJ O’ Driscolls Solicitors in Bandon I think its a great idea to share a fairly standard legal document such as an NDA.
However, as a heads up, in these matters it is the background legal (and commercial) advice that is as important as the document itself, so, in the same [...]

We had a little lull there towards the end of 2007 but the interest expressed by many people in OCC over the Christmas means that 2008 should be full of energy.
Our first event of the year is in the Rubicon in CIT on Friday 11th from 10am-12midday. This time however, it is in [...]
