We’ve just put the finishing touches to the latest instalment of Munster Matters, the online magazine for Munster Rugby. In it, we take a look at the upcoming Heineken Cup matches, The British & Irish Cup, as well as an in-depth interview with Mick O’Driscoll.

The magazine has a hat-full of interactive elements, info, and videos, as well as being fully share-able. Take a look and let us know what you think!

In our latest campaign, this Christmas season we’ve teamed Bord Gais up with Pix.ie to run their “Big Switch On” campaign, in which they are sponsoring the switching on of Dublin & Cork Christmas lights. We’re using Christmas themed Twitter #Tags to create a buzz around the campaign and pulling them in to a live stream on the Pix.ie group page.

A further goal of this campaign is to invite budding photographers to get involved by uploading their favourite Christmas ’09 images. If we gather 500 festive image uploads, Bord Gais will donate €10,000 to the Dublin Lord Mayor’s Christmas Fund. Festive fun while also contributing to a good cause!

You can find out more about it here: http://pix.ie/group/christmas09

Happy Christmas!
