Blogtalk NI is back - if it was reality TV, at least one of us would be voted off each week!

So after the pilot episode in September, NvTv's Blogtalk NI is back with a weekly run of four grumpy bloggers on a couple of sofas chewing over a few topics they've been reading about on local blogs.

This week's show was brought to you by Matt, Geoff, Alan and Donal, with topics ranging from Trafigura, to the availability of public data and information online, the recent joint statement by the SDLP and UUP about education and finally a word from Mick Fealty about the origins of the Slugger O'Toole group blog.

The panel will rotate over the incoming weeks so you won't be lumbered with me too often! And I'm sure carl AT northernvisions DOT org would love to hear from any female bloggers who'd like to sit and chat on the sofa in future episodes.
