		<title>Will Microsoft continue to dominate IT?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Microsoft recently announced that it has sold 175 million copies of its Windows 7 operating
system (http://windowsteamblog.com/windows/b/bloggingwindows/archive/2010/07/22/
windows-7-momentum-continues-175-million-licenses-sold.aspx). By the time you read
this, quite a few more copies will have shifted hands, as the official company line is that
more than seven copies are being sold per second, each and every day. Given the asking
price of Windows 7, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Browsing for a browser</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If graphical browsers were actual people, the oldest of them wouldn&#8217;t be old enough to legally drink, at least not yet. NCSA Mosiac, which grew into Netscape and almost in parallel into Microsoft Internet Explorer is a bit over seventeen years old. In technology terms that&#8217;s actually quite well aged, and browsers have evolved significantly [...]]]></description>

		<title>NBN alternatives</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s been a lot of recent press surrounding the first folks to be connected to the National Broadband Network. I&#8217;m not entirely sure that it can be called &#8220;National&#8221; when there&#8217;s only a few connected users to date, but that&#8217;s splitting hairs. Unless you happen to be in just a few spots in Tasmania (or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making The Most Of Your Printer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At a recent launch I attended in Hong Kong (disclaimer: HP paid for my plane fare and accommodation), HP launched a new range of printers with an interesting addition, namely e-mail addresses for each printer. The idea is pretty simple. If you&#8217;ve got a device capable of emailing, you can send files to the printer. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Technology and water don&#8217;t mix &#8212; or do they?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Almost everyone over the age of six knows that electronic devices and water aren&#8217;t a good combination. There&#8217;s the safety aspect of not giving yourself a shock (and only a shock if you&#8217;re lucky), not to mention turning your shiny electronic gadgets into soaking wet paperweights, and not much else. Spill a cup of tea [...]]]></description>

		<title>Can Networking be made easy?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most &#8212; not quite all, but almost all &#8212; of the home broadband connections sold in Australia come with a network attached. I&#8217;m not talking here of the internet that you pay money for and connect to, but the wired/wireless network delivered by a router of some sort. It&#8217;s certainly possible to set up a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Privacy online: A quick primer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the ongoing themes of the Internet age has been the question of privacy, and how to maintain it in an increasingly online world. It&#8217;s something that&#8217;s come to the fore recently with a lot of concern over the way that Facebook uses and utilises the data put into it, whether it&#8217;s simply making [...]]]></description>

		<title>What is the Net good for, exactly?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just writing that headline alone gave me terrible flashbacks to a Sandra Bullock 90&#8217;s thriller that I&#8217;m sure would seem horribly dated (although in some ways possibly prescient). Living more in the now, though, debate continues to rage around the potential implementation of the National Broadband Network, whether there&#8217;s enough broadband for everyone anyway, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beat the Telcos at their own game</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Getting a good mobile phone or broadband deal isn&#8217;t rocket science, but it does take time and perseverance.
If you want a good mobile phone &#8212; or mobile broadband &#8212; deal, there&#8217;s two things you&#8217;ll need. The first is plenty of time, and the second is an eye for detail.
Where you live may impact on the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do you want more TV advertising, even if it&#8217;s Google?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mid-May, Google announced a whole bunch of new products and services at its Google I/O event in San Francisco. The biggest surprise of the bunch was Google TV, a platform that Google&#8217;s developing to bring the richness of the Web to your TV.
This has of course been tried before for a vast number of years, [...]]]></description>
