Come for the craic and get hooked!
As an emigrant I miss Irish humour and debate more than most things and here I can get a daily digest of news, both serious and quirky, with some silliness thrown in, and there is always a bit of nostalgia that brings back great memories. As on any news website the comments are often biased and annoying but sometimes they are very informative and hit the nail right on the head. My favourite features are the Sitdown Sundays, where you will find five or six well written, thought provoking articles from around the world, the historical places series, and the Explainers, which give a synopsis of the background of a complex news story, e.g. "Whats going on in Syria?" This app is a must for anyone with an Irish background.
