		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to the excellent tutorials over at Slicehost, I got an idea of some the things you need to do to secure your brand new virtual private server (VPS) straight away.  To me, the main takeaways with regard to security would be: 1. create a privileged user with Sudo access 2. disable the root account [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It really irks me that even the latest-and-greatest Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium can&#8217;t get some simple functions right. Case in point: my amazing stubborn un-removable printers! Yep, there are 3 instances of FX DocuPrint here because the first two  (which no longer work as the networked printer has since gone local) won&#8217;t disappear no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are quite a number of tutorials available on backing up to Amazon S3, which is popular due to its redundancy and low cost (15cents per gigabyte). I prefer Rackspace Cloud Files though due to its lower upload fees (8cents vs 10cents per gigabyte of bandwidth).  We will use duplicity to create the backups because [...]]]></description>

Well, since then I&#8217;ve moved back to a shared hosting provider. Why the switch back? At the time, I was learning how to manage a VPS for work-related purposes so it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just been with Sparkstation for slightly more than a day on their Linux VPS. I thought I&#8217;d share some initial impressions, seeing that there is nary a review on these forums. I chose their cheapest VPS plan (VPS Value) without any control panel because I&#8217;m comfortable with managing my VPS without Cpanel or Plesk [...]]]></description>

Not satisfied with the limitations of Blogger (which has since joined the Google family), I was excited to discover WordPress which I then found the super affordable Focushub to [...]]]></description>

Now, the Band site was running on Joomla 1.0x. It featured an integrated Gallery2 for photographs, MSO Shoutbox for a shoutbox and discussion forums via the Joomlaboard component.

After examining available options (including the possibility of getting Macromedia Contribute!), the decision was made to migrate the website to [...]]]></description>
