    I just have a Eircom homepage.
    Do you have a nice HTML page that I can upload in place of the website or do you want the whole information taken down?

    /me is a noob


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,309 ✭✭✭✭Bard


    Gordon, the page to replace your page with on Friday is here: http://blackout.irelandoffline.org/splash.htm

    If you need help replacing it, just ask!

    --

    To add to the list, I'll be blacking out my personal site at http://niall.okeeffe.com/

    - also, of course, the home page of www.irelandoffline.com will be blacked out, but I'll be leaving a link to the site itself. As organisers of the Blackout, it's important that IOFFL's message remains on-line throughout.

    --

    I understand that Boards.ie will be taking part... will Spin Solutions themselves be doing it too?


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Thanks. Count me in then...

    My silly wee homepage - http://homepage.eircom.net/~gordonjensen/
    and
    http://gordonjensen.tripod.com/

  • Registered Users Posts: 12,309 ✭✭✭✭Bard


    That's the kind of support we're looking for! Fair play to you nahdoic.
