		<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone,
A quick note to mention that the site has been completely revamped. A fresh new design, sporting CSS3 rounded corners which you can only see in FireFox, Safari or Google Chrome. Thanks to the genius of Microsoft, IE has no plan to support CSS3 rounded corners until the CSS3 draft has been finalised. As soon as it [...]]]></description>

                   While I have been a little busy of late to do many reviews and musings, I have found time to tend to the site: Not only will you notice a slick and very green new look, very much in the style of MacOS, you may also spot a new heading on the page [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The company I work for have implemented a Sharepoint server as an intranet recently. On the whole, I consider it an excellent piece of software and a formidable solution in flexibility and capability.
BUT there is one enormous flaw with it: Calendar sharing.
This is quoted from the Microsoft Powerpoint document for Sharepoint integration:

		<description><![CDATA[Paint.NET &#8211; http://www.getpaint.net/
Overview
Paint.NET is an open source project – it is available under the MIT licence of the Open Source Initiative – I’m not entirely sure what that means, and I started reading to find out but then I got bored. It’s something like the GNU licence but different.

I’m guessing it’s something to do with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just what is the deal with AMD and Intel?
How is it that Intel provide processors at one frequency, and Amd provide them at a lower frequency &#8211; and claim them to be equivalent products&#8230;?
It seems insane, however there are many hundreds of ways different processors can outshine eachother. For example all processors have an onboard [...]]]></description>

Audacity.
It&#8217;s been stable and functional for some time now, to the tune of 2 or 3 years. Its important to note that there is further beta development at version [...]]]></description>

Oh yeah, we&#8217;ve been destroying the planet since the industrial age began. Aren&#8217;t we clever.

As far as Content Management Systems go, it&#8217;s a powerful beast, with a much glossier coat than before.
