    What is it about so many Irish sites and not being updated in a timely fashion? For example the Meteor site has still to be updated with information about the awards ceremony this week.

    http://meteormusicawards.meteor.ie/ (right now 21/02 @ 23:20, 2 days after the awards ceremony it hasn't been updated)

    Surely they are missing a major opportunity for some traffic? Also, the GAA website is brutally slow to be updated with results etc. I no longer go to the GAA website when looking for results because I know they won't be there on time. I'm sure I know of plenty other examples. Do these companies not employ someone to make sure their websites are up to date?

    I sent a mail to Meteor to ask why they hadn't updated their site and I got a reply (copy and paste job as it was directed at someone else) to say that the site had been updated with this years winners

    http://www.meteor.ie/about/music_awards/mima_winners/

    Not only has this years winners not been updated, last years aren't there either. They have updated the other page with this years winners so you'd think I would have been directed to that page instead.
