SOHO SOLO Ireland
Posted on July 25, 2007, by Conor O'Neill, under Blogging, Business, Cork.
I gave a talk today about blogging to the West Cork Soho Solo Networking Meeting in Clonakilty. I previous gave the same one to the East Cork group. It was very well received and I hope we see a few new blogs coming from them. If you are not aware of Soho Solo, it is a very worthwhile project. As their site says:
The aims of the project are to identify Small Office Home Office Workers(Soho Solos) in the South West of Ireland, to encourage others to relocate or return to the region, to promote Small Office Home Office Working and to offer support to these “new” entrepreneurs.
If you fit that description, I would highly recommend you contact them as they offer great support for what can be a very solitary endeavour.
Three of the attendees today already had blogs. I didn’t get the details of the third but you should definitely have a look at:

It really was great to see the interest from the attendees today. I got a similar response from those in East Cork recently too.

Hi Conor
Many thanks for this and for presenting to the Soho Solo members in East and West Cork - I’ve received fantastic feedback. You have certainly inspired a few and I’m sure there will be some new bloggers out there soon!
Cheers
Kathleen

Hi Conor,
I was at the talk this morning — it was a great introduction to blogging for the uninitiated, and gave those of us who already have our toes in the water plenty to think about.
I’ve just posted my own entry on the talk to Writing for Life if you fancy a look.
Thanks again for the talk… and I’ll certainly be keeping my eye on this blog from now on.
Cheers,
Calvin!
