Some of you bloggers might be interested in this. I got a tweet from a new organisation NewPolitics NI. They will soon be setting up a website and inviting contributions from people who believe in a “shared future”. All sounds a bit seductively “letsgetalongerist” and you all know how I feel about Conflict Resolution. Nor do I know who is backing it.
But bear it in mind.
Keeping An Eye On the Czar of Russia 
2 Questions.
a) Why wasn’t I tweeted?
b) Can we all join in?
I suppose the technical term is that they followed me and they have a general tweet asking for contributions to a web site. I replied that I was a blogger of sorts and that I was going off to USA to talk about Conflict Resolution.
They have since asked me directly.
Check out my recent tweets.
I think the main problem for me is not knowing who they are and who is behind them. In a sense, you and I and all bloggers have established a “brand”.
Can’t really work in the dark.
Meant to ask, no comments on the craigavon figs published today over at Chez Dub?
I will have a wee look.
baby here tonight and wedding tomorrow so running around mad here.
Ah, delighted to hear the FJH’s are doing their bit for the demographics out your way 😉
Ah…an in law. But within same constituency.
Fair point. It would be helpful to know something about them or at least who is funding them. If it is a certain chocolate concern I can imagine your next blog 😉
I maintain my anonymity on the web although my identity is known to some including certain politicians as you know but mainly it gives me a certain freedom to lose my rag on occasion as well as to express my opinions with less restraint. As blogging is essentially a personal thing, for me what makes it worthwhile is that others take the time to read, empathise, disagree and argue with what you think.
Hi bangodub, they sound positive. It can only be a good thing if they want a shared future. More sharing would be desirable, north of the border.
As a general rule Factual, it’s a bad idea to blog for a website if you don’t know who is behind it.
