| I am a stupid person. I was obv wondering if the chap in Question was trying to do this for $ or for portfolio, or both, or what. Altruistic reasons weren't bloody likely though

| Sorry wasn't meaning to imply that .. just if one were to do it its for probably the 2 to 3 reasons .. - Portfolio - Fame (First you get ze vebsite .. den zu get zee Vomen) - Ad revenue (potentially have the designers pay a fee to get listed ... though until it is noted as a good site it'd be a bit silly as no one would sign up) I did have an idea for this a while back ... I've got too many ideas that don't get realised due to lack of time ...

| No worries, I didn't think you were or I would have ranted at you a bit I suspect ROFL |

| I spent a year at Vienna University - and I still don't understand you both - then again the Germans always said the Austrians didn't really speak German! But just something else - maybe this should be a new thread... But how much do you not get done due to the lack of time? I find that I have a list of ideas that I keep for when I have space - the list just keeps getting longer.

Its the stereotypical english speaking people see german people pronouncing things when speaking english ... Vimen = woman .. and so on .. It takes a long time to become accustomed to all the nuances of a language .. I know trying to learn french at the moment .. well .. all time time As for the projects thing ... I've about 15 websites that I would work on if I had the time ... the problem is all the projects are pretty labour intensive and I can never seem to get the time to work on them. Clients as always take precidence ... I've not even updated my own site (that and I spend too much time posting on boards / irish web hamsters ) |

| good stuff, need to keep the magical gaelic language alive! My ex-GF refused to speak a word of it (she was a "good prod"), but I used to get her to ask for a cup of tea in gaelic if she wanted one or she wasn't getting one - the things ya do to keep the language alive <grin> (in retrospect- maybe that's why I am single now! hoho) |

| Well my wife is Breton ... so there's a good mix of languages already. She's fluent in english / german and obviously french. She also did a bit Breton when she was younger. She has already done a course in irish here but found it very bad ... but she does love ordering a pint of guinness in irish any time we make it into Aras Na nGael. I love to see the similarities between the two languages any time I'm over there. I'm also involved in the twinning galwaylorient.com and stpatricksgalway.com ... both in heavy need of a revamp. I'd love to start up irish again .. but its all a question of .. yep .. you guess it time |

| I must admit though I'm always amazed by the amount of people who don't know the word Forbairt and have no clue what it means New feature for my website I guess ... put in the definition |
