Welcome to 2007/2008

Monday 1 October 2007

Welcome to Freshers week, and welcome to Netsoc for 2007/2008. We’ve
been really busy over the summer organising events and new services.
Lets get started.

  • Netsoc news is now availible as an RSS feed so you can keep
    notified about upcoming events. To add this to your
    MyZone page, see
    this page.
  • We’ve set up a website for sharing notes from your courses
    and getting help. We call it
    resources and it isn’t
    just for Netsoc members, to be the most use to anyone. To get started,
    request an account here
  • We’re setting up a community
    internet radio station in a very
    cool way. Unfortunately, there is a bit of legal trouble at the moment,
    but we should be ready to go in the next two weeks.
  • We have setup webchat
    for people inside college, and it goes well with our
    quotes database
  • Planning a trip to the cinema? See all the showings for all the
    dublin cinemas at cinema.netsoc
    in one handy, page without any ads.
  • Have a group project? We have a website to make doing this easy.
    It doesn’t have to be a group project, or even a tech-related project.
    It’ll help with any essays or presentations you might have to do. You
    can request a project here
  • We now publish scorefiles for our two most popular games, netris
    and nethack on our games website
    now you can gloat over who is the best adventurer or block destroyer and
    overall increase your internet-fame
  • Just want your shell account and website as quick as possible?
