Some of you may have wondered ‘Who the hell is Declan O’Rourke’ since he was featured so prominently in my Best of list. Or perhaps you skipped the post, I wouldn’t blame you.

I’ve now written a little more about this album and the song that first woke me up and then took my breath away on a bus journey from Dingle to Dublin:

U2log.com editors recommend // Declan O’Rourke – Since Kyabram

This album’s seriously making me consider buying an (any) MP3 player because I don’t want to be without it while I commute.

My friend and co-founder of U2log.com, Ben Hopkinson, got a cool quote from Bono outside of the Osborne Samuel gallery tonight. Ben’s been on walkabout for three years and hasn’t been able to contribute much to our site, unfortunately. We miss him a lot and I’m glad his first ‘assignment’ in three years and standing around in the cold for hours paid off.

Finally!

The new U2log.com has gone live.

All MT 3.1, CSS, xHTML (though external links break validation), dynamic publishing, etc etc. And we’re using Flickr for our ‘Caption it’ feature.

So, we’re ready for the new album (which the design is based on) and tour. What’s next?
