		<title>British TeleCON</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now its no secret that I hate post. The thought of getting something nasty through the post disturbs me immensely. It&#8217;s mainly due to the fact I seldom get anything good through the &#8216;snail mail&#8217;, just the usual junk, bank stuff, and demands for money (bills). Only within the week of my birthday do I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why settle for bad service?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a question&#8230; &#8220;Why do people PAY for bad service&#8221;? More so, why do people CHOOSE bad service?? Let me give you an example and maybe the answer will just pop into your mind &#8211; personally I&#8217;m struggling with the concept! Just the other day, we received a call from one of our longer term clients [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Time for another &#8220;Donkey Award&#8221;&#8230; This made me laugh: San Francisco&#8217;s unluckiest thief It seems that some idiot riding a bicycle, decided to grab an iPhone that was being held by a woman on San Francisco street. This he did and sped off down the road&#8230; Unfortunately the thief didn&#8217;t know that the iPhone was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Clueless</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my job, there&#8217;s a certain look people get from time to time &#8211; it&#8217;s a kind of stare, looking into the middle distance. (This obviously has NO reflection on my ability to enchant a conversation with my lively personality ) In general it signifies that I&#8217;ve pushed the client off the end of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>iPhone failure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most of the tech websites are speculating on what Apple will do about it&#8217;s latest iPhone offering. Personally i think anything less than a total recall of the phones, and a reissue with the problem fixed, will be an insult to the &#8220;People of the Apple Cult&#8221;. It seems to me that little else is [...]]]></description>

		<title>BT &#8211; doing something RIGHT!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s difficult to say this; I&#8217;d even go so far as to say that it brings physical tears to my lovely blue peepers &#8211; BUT. It seems that the corporate behemoth that is BT, has paired up with another telecommunication monster, to go head to head with the Con-Dem coalition over the ludicrous &#8217;Digital Economy Act&#8217;. BT and TalkTalk challenge Digital [...]]]></description>

		<title>Windows 7 Desktop not refreshing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Once again I start having more &#8216;fun&#8217; with Micro$ofts flagship product &#8211; it seems to be the usual M$ release program: 1) Release buggy, untested software to the masses 2) Convince technicians that paying M$ to be beta testers for their software is a good thing. 3) Expect technical folk worldwide to solve the most [...]]]></description>

		<title>UK Budget</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Unless you live in a cave without power and WiFi, you&#8217;ll be aware that the current chancellor &#8211; one George Osborne MP &#8211; has delivered an &#8216;Emergency&#8217; budget statement. Amongst some interesting measures, several will effect the UK SME market in some unsettling ways. Upping the CGT (Capital Gains Tax) will have an impact for [...]]]></description>

		<title>HTC Desire &#8211; a quick review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Now I&#8217;m not one for having the &#8216;latest greatest&#8217; phone, in fact, phone technology turns me right off. Surprising for a techie gadget freak you may say, but the truth is that I have daily access to all the technology any über geek could want. But the time had come to retire my old Nokia [...]]]></description>

		<title>Exchange SP2 on SBS2008</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On a brand new Small Business Server 2008 installation, there are quite a few &#8216;tweaks&#8217; to do before it decides to run smoothly. Running the &#8216;Windows Small Business Server 2008 Best Practices Analyzer&#8216; tool produces lots of &#8216;problems&#8217; to be fixed. Nothing new there then &#8211; Thanks Micro$oft, most of these were reasonable easy to [...]]]></description>
