		<title>FOSDEM 2009: Day 1</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Day 1 of FOSDEM was great fun, and exhausting! I managed to attend the following sessions: Keynote: Mark Surman, Mozilla: Free, Open, Future? My favourite keynote of the day. Mark looked at FOSS philosophically, and asked the questions: &#8220;what next?&#8221; and &#8220;how far can free and open source software go?&#8221;. He touched on the values [...]]]></description>

		<title>FOSDEM 2009</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Next week I&#8217;ll be heading off to Brussels to attend FOSDEM 2009. I&#8217;m excited to be able to make it to such a popular event like this.

		<title>April Fools 2008 at Squiz Hobart office</title>

		<title>Taming Leopard’s syslogd</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A short while after upgrading to Leopard, I began experiencing a problem where the syslogd daemon would begin to hog the CPU, causing my Macbook Pro to whirr noisily (in a fashion that made me feel like I should be running some sort of &#8220;pre-flight checks&#8221; prior to taking off in a jet plane). Furthermore, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Automated SSH bouncing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Where I work (Squiz.net), we have a lot of servers with IP restrictions for different parts of our network. For example, in order to connect to some client servers, I have to SSH to a server in our Sydney office (from Hobart) before connecting. I found it difficult to keep track of which hosts allowed [...]]]></description>

		<title>A devil of a weekend</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It is no secret that I love swing dancing, and for the past few months I&#8217;ve been helping put together Devil City Swing &#8212; Tasmania&#8217;s first social swing dancing exchange, which was held over this weekend gone (22nd &#8211; 24th June).

		<title>Time to join the revolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been four years since the release of WordPress, and in that same year was the release of MySpace &#8211; the leader of the latest online social revolution! Apparently I&#8217;m behind the times. I&#8217;ve got a MySpace page where I &#8216;comment&#8217; on people, so I thought it was about time I threw up a copy [...]]]></description>
