Conor Twomey’s Blog

I thought that it would never happen to me and yes it did. I accidentally allowed my domain name (conortwomey.com) to expire. Your probably thinking how is that possible? Well its easy. With all the spam that is hammering our email addresses, most people who host domain names usually create an email address that is used specifically for that purpose. This email address is entered into the WHOIS record for the domain name. As you might not be aware, the WHOIS record for a domain name is usually a great source of email addresses for spamming. Hence most people don’t bother to read the email that comes in on this email address.

To get around this I decided to register the domain name for the next 10 years. With the dollar vs euro at an all time low, it doesn’t get cheaper than this.

My name is Conor Twomey, I live in Ballybrittas, Co. Laois, Ireland.

I work in the software industry for a company that writes software for Anti Money Laundering and Fraud Detection.

In addition to working in the software industry, I also work as a freelance photographer working for one of the big regional newspapers in Co. Laois.

I specialize in sports photography and I can often be found at the weekend photographing Inter-County Football and Hurling, European Tour Golf, County Club Football and Hurling and a range of other sports.

I hope you enjoy my blog.
