Idiosyncratic, as you'd expect from an Insider. The breadth and depth of this website is impressive, so you can browse around for a while. It's updated frequently, too! It has unique entries on Hidden Pubs, Hidden Bookshops, and
Dublin Pubs, The Definitive Guide
The title is ambitious, but not far from the truth. Their descriptions of the pubs that I've visited are accurate.
The Wicklow Way (dot com)
The Wicklow Way is a long, long hiking trail. Its northern terminus is close to our place: a short car ride, a short trip on public transit, or a longish bike ride. The trail gets into the Wicklow Mountains very quickly, so it's a beautiful (and challenging) hike.

Podcasts are also available; Will listened to Morning Ireland for weeks before moving to Dublin.
