I use the fantastic StatCounter.com Website and Blog Analytics service to measure my Elearning Curve Blog’s metrics; this is not just because they’re an Irish company, but also because they provide very comprehensive and granular logs and metrics. 
Among other things it allows me to review are such statistics as
- site usage
- page loads
- popularity of site by location (for an English-language site, I’ve an unusually large group of readers in Brazil, for example: Olá! Como vai?)
- location of subscribers (hello also to my most northerly reader in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada)
and so forth.
According to my “Most popular keyword” reports, a very common query is “e-learning companies ireland.” A recent Silicon Republic report states that there are over sixty such organizations based in Ireland, but from my researches no directory of these companies is available online.
Now, we all know about Skillsoft, WBT Systems, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Electric Paper, Intuition, and so forth, but who else is out there?
I (and seemingly quite a few other people in the blogosphere) would like to know.
So, if you send me your company details via the Comments link at the bottom of this post (name, URL, location, market space etc), I’ll put them together in an easily accessible online directory, not for any other reason than nobody seems to have undertaken this activity before - that I’m aware of, anyway.

I wanted to make you aware of Linkage’s Excellence in Leadership and Management Series. Starting it’s 10th year, it has brought many of the world’s best thought leader’s directly to companies’ auditorium’s and desktops at a fraction of the cost of a keynote. In addition to a very exciting upcoming 2008 series, most of our past broadcasts are available on-demand via webcast or DVD.
