		<description><![CDATA[Gary Vaynerchuk is the Marmite of internet marketing: you either love him or loathe him. Personally, his over-the-top US Evangelist style is not remotely my cup of tea but that doesn&#8217;t mean he can&#8217;t be learned from. He&#8217;s best known these days as the man behind Wine Library TV which is an object lesson in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
WordPress has become the de facto blogging platform: particularly for blogs that are to be self-hosted. On first installation, however, it&#8217;s like a blob of plasticine &#8211; formless and blank, waiting to be morphed into, er, Morph. Design is part of this, of course, and Wordpress benefits from tens of thousands of themes, most available [...]]]></description>

More often than not, my experience of surveys (as a respondent) is when I receive an email saying &#8220;your views are valuable so please fill in this survey about your experience of buying from us&#8221;. At which point, I immediately look for any sight of a quid pro quo: if my views are &#8220;valuable&#8221; to [...]]]></description>

In June, I created a new business selling candle-making kits to be developed alongside writing the “How to set up an online business” magbook for PC Pro.

I&#8217;ve been using phpDesigner6 for over a year now and it&#8217;s become by far my favourite web development environment. Less bloated and more fleet-footed than Zend Studio, more robust (for me at least) than PhpEd and cheaper than both, phpDesigner is just as comfortable editing HTML and CSS as PHP and is reassuringly devoid of [...]]]></description>

Perhaps I’m a luddite but my mobile phones have tended to be, well, pretty basic since my first, screen-less brick 13 years ago. My priorities had been limited to good signal quality, long battery life, the best possible camera and easy-to-use texting. Occasionally, I’d look up the football or cricket scores on the BBC’s mobile [...]]]></description>
