On Friday the Irish Architecture Foundation launched its new website– very swish! Super design, rich content– it’s one of the best Irish arts sites I’ve seen. Podcasts, blogs, lectures through streaming video… it’s long been a pet peeve of mine how poorly many arts orgs use the web, but I’m delighted to see the IAF taking up the gauntlet. It’s a marvellous organisation, with wonderful programmes (Open House Dublin) and exhibitions (the latest Venice Biennale entry ‘The Lives of Spaces‘ was elegant and provoking)– and the new site sets it all off perfectly.

Ok, enough gushing, go check it out now for yourself…
