« George hooks, but does he bring new users to Twitter? Tuesday Push: MyMunster, network for Muster rugby fans »

Meta Tuesday Push

There are people who believe that the internet will swallow itself up if you search for “Google” in Google and, while it has been shown to be safe to blog about blogging, it is not without a little bit of nervousness that I give a Tuesday Push to Tuesday Push, hoping that it doesn’t set server upon server to their mutual destruction.

Popular web lore, or “blore” as it is known, is that the idea was the brainchild of the blogfather, Damien Mulley, way back in 2008, when Web 2.0 hadn’t reached 2.2.1 as it has now (we are now at the point where someone is about to suggest Web 1.0 is the new Web 3.0 and others are going to burn their computers as ecologically safe as possible).

Enough gibberish. What is Tuesday Push? It is where, each Tuesday, one Irish web start-up is selected to be promoted by the Irish start-up community (although it spreading amongst the wider Irish blogging community) by doing a blog post and using the various social media to draw attention to the product/service/application. Personally I think it is necessary since these Irish start-ups are competing with firms emerging from Silicon Valley where the community there gives support in the form of experience, funding, partnerships and promotion, to the local start-up community.
