I’ll be personally Twittering & Jaikuing Party Leader Eamon Gilmore‘s speech on Saturday night from 20:30.

I’m also running a Fringe Event on the Obama campaign – David Traynor, who worked on the campaign in New Mexico, will be on the panel with me (Virginia), Tom Duke (internet & new media specialist), Shauneen Armstrong (Redmum) and Neil Ward.  Should be interesting.  It’s in the Orchard Room at 1pm Saturday, if you’re around.

I’ll try to blog here a bit over the weekend too, time, and cross posts at Labour.ie, permitting.
