Siliconia - from The Alps to the Wadi
I came across this website the other day while reading an article from wired (1998).
The site claims to be the the definitive collection of Siliconia on the Web. Siliconia are appropriations of names beginning with "Silicon" by areas outside Silicon Valley. A Siliconium can be promoted by local boosters or it can be assigned to an area in a press account. An ideal Siliconium will capture something unique about the regional character and when first encountered will bring a fleeting smile.
Ireland was mentioned under Silicon bog, but I did not know that there was a Silicon Wadi
