I have been assisting jamie with a new survey n it will probably be the next feature here. But it wont have occupational data.

It is a real shame that they have closed their office and all their staff will loose their jobs. 96 people in development following on from Jolt closing earlier in the year is a real blow to development here in Ireland. I think we should all try to offer support via various social networks etc. to those looking for jobs.
It might be worth realising that this is mirroring what has been happening in the UK for quite some years. Foreign ownership, shifts in technology or profit margins not met, and then projects shelved or developers closed. In the UK at least there are other companies for the staff to go to or you see new companies opening up.
We need to really support our indies and help those who want to set up new companies. Otherwise these people will be lost to the industry or worse still, the country.
