		<description><![CDATA[Unlike the iPad, the BlackBerry PlayBook has rather poor international keyboard support, with no method for entering chinese characters. I like the way iOS achieves this, so went about building my own version in ActionScript. This was mainly an academic exercise and to help me to learn to write chinese. My approach was to sample [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently discovered Symform, a unique type of cloud storage service, which gives you up to 100GB of free cloud storage. What&#8217;s special about them is that your data isn&#8217;t stored in one Data Centre somewhere, but encrypted and distributed amongst thousands of other Symform users&#8217; harddrives, offering better redundancy than RAID storage. You can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A common oversight when using Bitmaps with loaded content is that Flash will revert a Bitmap&#8217;s smoothing parameter to false when you replace its bitmapData. It&#8217;s simple enough to fix, but since you may not know if someone is going to replace the bitmapData of a Bitmap you have created &#8211; then it&#8217;s often better [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It gets scary out there sometimes. During my freelance career I've worked a lot of different companies and have seen such coding horrors as you cannot imagine. So I thought I'd start immortalising some of them - so that we can all learn better coding practices, by looking at the bad. Starter for 10 - [...]]]></description>
