		<title>Blogsy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m writing this article using Blogsy, which so far appears to be the best blogging option for the iPad by far. That&#8217;s not to say that it is quite as simple as doing the same job on your laptop, but it is certainly easier than using one of the native apps, such as WordPress. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flipboard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The application of the day has to be Flipboard. Given that the premise of a social content reader is so simple, the execution is quite excellent and the results speak for themselves (see below for an example). You can choose from a selection of ready made feeds from partner publishers provided by Flipboard and add [...]]]></description>

		<title>The iPad2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I suppose it had to happen sooner or later, but I have given into the dark side and finally bought (or caused to have bought) an apple product bigger than the iPod nano that keep the two small people happy in the back of the car! As you can see below, I&#8217;ve been tempted into [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dell 2209WA Screen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had an LG 19&#8243; LCD monitor for a few years now, and with the slow march of progress, it was time to think about a replacement.&#160; Cue list of desirable features: Larger screen size than previous, around 21&#8243; or 22&#8243; Widescreen aspect, either 16:9 or 16:10 Lower energy consumption, both in operation and especially [...]]]></description>

		<title>Not just your average custom computer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not much into bizarre case mods, but this almost perfect replica of Wall-e built by a Russian (18 days apparently) is one of the better ones out there. As you can see, this is going to be in Russian, and probably breaks the odd copyright law, but given the amount of work this fella [...]]]></description>

		<title>reCAPTCHA and WordPress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is a given side effect of blogs that as soon as you have one, the spammers of the world find you&#8217;re out there and start posting inane and useless stuff as comments on your site. WordPress has a very good span filter in the form of Askimet, but it helps to keep the spammers [...]]]></description>

		<title>Zenphoto Widget</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve recently switched my Gallery to use the excellent Zen Photo web gallery. This is simpler than Coppermine, but retains enough of smart navigation to be very usable. The presentation is very slick too, with lots of interchangeable themes to choose from. In making the change, that meant I also had to create a new [...]]]></description>

		<title>Synology DiskStation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There are an increasing number of network attached storage (NAS) devices, each of which offers at the minimum access to a hard disk drive in an external enclosure. Some devices also offer additional facilities such as active data redundancy (see the earlier post on the Drobo storage robot), but with the Synology DS207+ device, you [...]]]></description>

		<title>CMS Matrix</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This site has been hosted using the popular blog publishing system from WordPress. It&#8217;s very easy to use, the themes can be customised easily, and it doesn&#8217;t try to be all things to all people. However, in the interest of keeping all things fresh, I have been looking at alternate CMS systems, including XOOPS, Drupal [...]]]></description>

		<title>OpenDNS &#8211; an alternate to the net nanny</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been looking to install a net nanny type application for sometime on my home network, mainly to provide some protection for the kids against the less salubrious websites that are out there. Received wisdom (mainly from the local ISP) is that I should install a dedicated nanny application onto each PC that I [...]]]></description>
