I was recently made aware of a lecture coming up in Queens University in Belfast by Noam Chomsky. I quickly learned that the lecture was of particular interest because it will talk about grass roots activism, social media and its use in the election of Obama.
As the R8 Your Politician sites are getting closer to launch with the new political year approaching fast and I thought it would be great to get Mr Chomsky's view on the sites and its wider implications for the democratic system.
I sent an email to Mr Chomsky asking would he be up for a short interview when he arrives in Belfast. To my surprise I received a reply.

Starting a business is not an easy process, it takes dedication and drive to push through when times are hard. I built most of R8 Your Politician while I was unemployed. All i had was free time so I used every night and every day to build what I could. I registered with the HSBC because they were offering 18 months free Business banking. It got even better when I was told by HSBC that they Partnered with Microsoft and that I was eligible to join Microsoft's BizSpark Programme.
