Heading "Smooth Jakcies Click into gear and find the net in impressive style"

The Jackies have made it onto the big screen. And whoever designed the new Dublin Ladies Football website is a shoe-in for the oscar.
The new website has slipped as smoothly into harbour as a classic production from the old Harland & Wolf Shipyard.
Its a brilliant effort. Everything is there. Even Bebo, where the Dubs catchline is "Irish by birth, but Dubs by the grace of God".
Yet, like in Harland & Wolf, a good website is all about the nuts and bolts.
Its about providing the necessary information in the most accessible manner.
Get the basics right, and the decoration will follow.
As the Golden Pages ad used to declare- "let your fingers do the walking" and on this stylish site, there are so many avenues to explore.
All the latest news is there, Like the forthcoming Golf Classic at Portmarnock on Thursday, May 15.
Reports- There are match reports and pictures galore and an item on the results text messaging service.
One of the most appealing chapters is "Find a Club". That consists of a map of Dublin with little arrow that the great Brendan OBrein could have sung about.Aim the arrow in a particular part of the county and the club names come up with the relevant information.
Theres the detailed contact lists of mentors and club officials, so no pebble has been left unturned.
This sparkling website is as far away from the Stone Age as you could get.
Its a real Space-age voyage of discovery.
