		<description><![CDATA[I’m in the process of changing jobs at the moment, and have been struck by the difficulties inherent in trying to quantify experience and skill in people moving between companies in the web development sector. I currently carry the job title of “Senior Web Developer”, but my skills are on a par with — and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My viewing of the first episode of the new Apprentice series was conducted under an assumption, rapidly formulated during the first ninety seconds of the show, that these people cannot possibly be real; that such a concentration of  frantically self-aggrandising, masturbatory gawpers cannot possibly exist — outside of fiction — in the space of one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been making a conscious effort to read more “industry literature” lately, in as much as I’ve started seeking out books on web/software development and design that I feel, as a supposed pro, I ought to have read (possibly some time ago). This endeavour eventually brought me to Jeffrey Zeldman’s Designing with Web Standards, which [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I thought it was about time I wrote about my latest project: tweetvaultHQ. It launched a couple of weeks ago, and now things have settled down I’ve got time to write a bit about it and what the launch was like. tweetvaultHQ is a hosted Twitter archiving service. Some time last year I got [...]]]></description>

Today I think I might have worked out one possible reason — a helpful Auto Trader feature called TeleSafe. TeleSafe is an opt-in phone number-masking [...]]]></description>

I’ve worn myself out yakking on about it, as it’s something on which I do indeed have a view, so I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently had the somewhat unenviable task of combining two large iTunes libraries into one and found that there’s pretty much no information on this online, so I thought I’d share my “technique” in the hope that someone might find it useful.
