Eight weeks till Eurovision 2010

In eight weeks time, this year’s Eurovision Song Contest will be over, and I’ll be back from Oslo in Edinburgh.

Just as last year, I’ll be covering the event online from inside the stadium not just on the night of the Grand Final (May 29th) but also the two semi finals (May 25th and 27th), but also in the run up to the ‘Eurovision Week’ of staging, rehearsals, backstage fun and everything else that goes into one of the world’s most popular TV show in the world.

The easiest way to follow me is going to be on Twitter (follow @Ewan), where I’ve been providing the ever popular live textual commentary to the Song Contests for the last four years worth of contests. Here’s last year’s Top Ten tweets, as voted for by readers of the site

Other than that, keep popping back here,as I’ll be linking out to articles, features and interviews that I’m doing for a number of sites and publications – more on those as we get closer to the date – plus I’ll be offering as much opportunity to get your questions answered, the return of the Beginners Guide to Eurovision, and there’s a couple of new bits of Web 2.0 stuff that could work well in Oslo!

Moscow's Eurovision Warmup

Remember, Eurovision is more than just the show on the Saturday night, there’s more than enough fun to keep a smile on your face for all of May!
