		<title>Book Reviews Plugin v1.4 for WP 2.5</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Slight update to make the plugin work better with version 2.5 of WordPress.  Not sure how backwards compatible it is, due to changes in 2.5 I would not recommend using this on anything less than 2.5.

		<title>How to Improve Your Boot Time</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently on a mission to make my laptop boot as fast a possible.  I learnt a fair bit in the process of getting my boot time down below 30 seconds (that&#8217;s from hitting the power button to being able to use it), which doesn&#8217;t sound fast, but compared to most machines is [...]]]></description>

The Software
I started by installing a copy of XP Pro I had lying around, once that was running I set about the PVR software.
I initially installed GB-PVR.  It&#8217;s not open source, but is free, and seems to have a lot of support.  It is actually designed as two [...]]]></description>

		<title>Building an HTPC (part 1)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve owned a Topfield TF5800PVR PVR for some time, it&#8217;s been great, dual tuner, 160Gb drive, easy to use and you export the files via USB which can be burnt to DVD.  Recently I have come across two problems:
1. I keep filling up the hard disk
2. Even though I export the files, they take [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting the Jabra BT320s Working with Bluetooth Transmitters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have an iPod and generally listen to it when I&#8217;m getting ready in the mornings, I find it better than listening to a stereo as I moved through several rooms and it can travel with me.  One problem is where to put your &#8216;pod when you&#8217;re in various states of dress.  So [...]]]></description>

		<title>Devolo dLan Highspeed Ethernet Starter Kit Review</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was lucky enough to get my hands on one of these for free recently (legally, I hasten to add), so thought I would review it so the rest of you can make a more informed decision, not just about this product, but power line networking in general.  
A number of years ago there [...]]]></description>

		<title>Saving Money Buying Hardware and Software</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently lamenting at the prices we Brits are forced to pay compared with compatriots overseas.  Nothing personal, but we&#8217;re getting ripped off and I don&#8217;t like it.  Mind you, I rarely pay full price for anything these days, certainly not full RRP or high street prices, there&#8217;s too many ways to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Windows Vista</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been using Windows Vista for several months now, so I think I&#8217;m in a position where I can comment on it.  I run Vista Ultimate 64, the 64-bit version of Vista rather than the standard 32-bit (which is what XP is, for example).  The different variations of Vista make things confusing I [...]]]></description>

		<title>SRG Clean Archives Plugin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I use the SRG Clean Archives plugin on my blog but it wasn&#8217;t working under WordPress 2.3 so I hacked it and made it work, and I thought I would make it available to download for others should they want it.
Note that the official development of the SRG Clean Archives has been taken up over [...]]]></description>
