Missing for so long, my love of writing, blogging and ultimately content creation is driving me to kickstart kenmc.com after a lengthy absence.
On rediscovering a love of blogging, writing

KenMcGuire.ie
Currently enjoying an upswing in blogging across various blogs from late 2011, I’ve finally settled on using kenmcguire.ie as a personal blog. Yes, the food, arts, and music are still getting attention, along with the events but as the content spin on kenmc.com weighs far more heavily on technology side than anything else (outside of…
Turning Attentions To Arts & Culture
THE ARTS, with theatre in particular, is quite close to my heart. One of the most enjoyable things I’ve done in years finished recently when I wrapped up a six month artist residency at 76 John Street, Kilkennny with The Devious Theatre Company. The purpose of the residency was to allow the company time to…
KLCK Bloggers Network In Kildare
The second Monday of the month is almost upon us which means the next KLCK Bloggers Network meeting is just around the corner as well. I was invited along as a guest speaker for last month’s gathering which took place in Kilkenny. 18 or so people made the night, the good numbers sparking some interesting…
Blogging About Food
I had been thinking about it long enough, taking photos long enough, tweeting about it long enough and getting in the neck from friends long enough. The “it” I’m referring to is food, my love of food, and now I’ve taken all of the above and finally started up a proper food blog. I’ve got…
Talking Plugins With KLCK Bloggers Network

The Start Of A New Year
IT’S THE start of a new year, a new decade. A chance to review the last 365 days and plan, or attempt to plan, for the next. Sure enough, there’s a lot I’m going to do this year between work, theatre, travel, music, business as usual really. What I missed throughout the year was a…
Blogging The Arts Festival
The Kilkenny Arts Festival, now in its 36th year, opened on Friday night and for the duration of the festival I’ll be hiding out over on the festival blog, with myself and John Morton making contributions to the festival content manning the blog / Twitter and video output until Sunday the 16th. For me personally…
Irish Blog Awards: Technology Bloggers
The short lists for the Irish Blog Awards have been announced thanks to the trojan work being put in by the judging group for 2009. On average each blog shortlisted was scored by seven judges. Having seen KilkennyMusic.com and my own blog here drop off at the long list stage (i.e. not shortlisted), I’ll be…
Testing WPtouch, Make Your Blog iPhone-friendly
A tweet from Donncha pointed me in the direction of WPtouch earlier today, now running on kenmc.com. What does it do? It’s a plugin for your WordPress-based blog that renders a very iPhone and iPod-friendly theme of your blog. Forget bulky images, scrolling screen after screen – load in the plugin, fire it up and…
