We've finally launched an "official" blog:

http://blog.blacknight.ie/

There isn't much content yet, but it will grow over time.

What kind of topics should we talk about??

Should we try and blend the design into the site completely or should we give it a slightly different styling?

Any feedback would be welcome

it looks alright the way it is.
I would rather try to have it stretch the full screen, cause some blogs might be too long to read and is nice if you don't have to scroll that much. I am not lasy, but as you said to me once "I prefer to find everything quick"

Also you are missing the orange bar you have on the main site - I think you should put that there even if is empty just to go with it.

Thanks for the feedback.

I've added the orange bar to the top of the pages, so it looks a bit more like the rest of our site. We may need to build a template from scratch to get it _exactly_ like the rest of the site

The page width issue is something I'll definitely look into

why do you loose the right nav bar when you click on the links?
You can adjust the page width in the style sheet.

I'll probably redo the templates when I get the energy.. At the moment, as you noticed, the sidebar is only visible on the main index, but it would be better if it was on all pages

I found a few handy tutorials on working with Movable Type, so I should be able to get those niggly issues sorted out

I've added the sidebar to all the pages and it now uses the screen real estate a bit better

Any other thoughts?

What about the content?

the content seems fine taking into consideration it is only the begining.

i'd try using the original logo you have on the main website cauese the white one seems the have a square in the background.
